Hello guys. Please can anyone help me with any cheapest hotel close to Abuja embassy pleaseeeeee.

I'm very low on budget and I can't afford Sheraton.


I will be visiting Abuja for the first time, which of the parks will I stop at?, and how to get to the "cheap hotel"

Edakun.

It depend on the bus you board, you can stop at Utako or Zuba or Kubwa park but zuba is extra far from the US embassy

You can get hotel of 5k around utako, 4k around kubwa

Please help. A friend applied for mba at California Miramar University having two diplomas (lower credit) and a HND (upper) was denied admission because her GPA is not equivalent to USA decree. Please which other school can she apply to and what does she needs to do to burst her GPA.
Please any one with GRE materials should assist. Plssss. Email: blessinggupar@gmail.com

Let your friend go and do WES evaluation and that would be the best way out

Predstan:
@Walspring. Can you please help make Sevis payment from there?

To all those who sent me pm, check your email junk or spam if you didn't get it in your email inbox

A friend told me that Abuja embassy have been closed down till further notice. And I also confirmed it on this thread. So try and verify if they've opened.

They have reopened since nah

LearnAndObey:

Thanks, is there a place I could request for cab or uber?

Sure. Just download the uber app and follow the instructions.

If you have bargaining power, opt for the union taxis. It's just that they have static prices and it might be hard bearing down the cab fare. For example, they charge 3k from the airport to Sauka while you get to pay N670 on uber. You get my point, yes?

Success with your interview.

Truth is, one isn't guaranteed a particular job however, one could grab an academic or non-academic job. Read through job placements and you will realize it is worth it.

This information is very misleading. Anybody telling you that switching status is a stroll in the park (if it's even possible) is deceiving you. The only way you stand a chance of changing status is declaring your plans to your B1/B2 interview officer.
Look before you leap./quote]

Thanks for this. "If you get a B1/B2, you can change status upon arrival" Everyone should be applying for B1/2 then since you can change on arrival.

bigwizzy001:


Thanks so much for the clarification. I would rather get my F1 before departing naija. Make I no go land for trouble.

This is a better plan...... travel with the right visa before departing

Good day all. Can someone please clarify this to me...I am trying to schedule my student visa appointment but got to the point of selecting visa priority option.
1- Option one asking if I have been interviewed/refused within the last 2 months.

2- Option two"Regular"

I was interviewed on the 14th July, 2018.

My question:

Am I going to choose the first option seeing that it was over two months I was last interviewed?

I will be happy if someone can please respond to my question.

Thank you all.

Choose the second option since you've been denied visa before
Best of wishes!

Walspring:

What do you mean by his background check being bad.

If the person has a legal status in the US.......
The person isn't on an overstayed visa, legal standing and the rest you can think of.

Yes it is asking me if I have been refused before which I have been but really want to know if that is applicable to me since it specifies in the last 2 months. That's why I want to be sure if I fall in that category as going by the calculation, mine was refused 14th July, 2018. I dont want to choose the wrong thing erroneously, so that I wont be seem as deliberately misrepresenting my application. I dont want that to happen.
