Why do you have to pay so much to receive your admission letter? Most schools send a copy via email as well as a hard copy. If your school sent you an admission letter via email, you can print it out and use it for your visa interview or for whatever purpose you need it for. Spending $105 to send your admission letter via courier isn't financially prudent, unless you do not have an email copy.

Hi guys I think we should create a thread for students in the diaspora (USA) to share their experiences, informations and general conversations like how they are surviving in the USA etc. I believe a thread of its own would be beneficial to everyone. What do you all think?

Gloryemo:
Hello, pls what semester are you going for? I applied for fall 2019, have gotten admission, and i applied for GA but not heard anything yet.

Adtek:

As some of you might know, I want to take the SAT and I really need some advice. I am currently in Anambra but I would be willing to go to Abuja to take the SAT if it won't be impossible for me to take it here. I need to become a student-athlete at Duke University and I think this will be a step in that direction.



How can I register and how much does it cost? What books do I need to get? I would have gone to the EDUSA advising centre but for distance.





I really need your input.





THANK YOU SO MUCH!

There's a SAT center in Benin, there's one in Port Harcourt and I think there are two Anambra

Take your SAT first, apply to Duke. After applying go to the athletics tab on their website, look for the sports you want to participate in and mail the coaches. Alot of them require you send them a video of you playing the sport you choose and recommendation from your home coach.

It costs #31,650 directly but if you're not registering alone most centers registers for #50,000 and above

Good day house, Please I need to get this information right. Can i use the same account statement that I used for my previous visa interview because the bank statement is only showing statements of last year and I would be applying again this fall or should I update it because my sponsor is a us citizen and it would be stressful for him to update again and send the original down here .please I need advice on this.

please I need your help on this ..i was accepted to study computer science , but liberal art and science is written on my i20. the school told me that the norms. should I say am gonna study liberal art and science but major in computer science, or should I just say am gonna study computer science during my interview. to avoid story that touches the heart.
secondly if I say am gonna study computer science, will that make the vo think that I don't know my course?
thirdly, if the vo ask me to talk about my course, should I talk about liberal art or computer science.
my interview is around the corner , please i need your advice on this to avoid negative outcome

OluDare01:

Check out Tennessee Tech. Email Dr. Tania Datta in Civil and Environmental Engineering and see if she has funding.
You may also check the Engineering technology master's program at East Tennessee State University

AgreatMan:

I guess one of the reasons u applied to Michigan tech was cos they waive application fee but that school no too hold bar. You can try to find GA openings on their website

Not sure if these schools all have environmental engineering but certainly have something related.

1. Florida A n M and FSU joint engineering program. April 1st deadline. Clearly written that funding is not based on first come first serve.

2. Morgan State U. April 1 deadline.

3. U of texas at Arlington. Priority funding deadline is March 15.

4. If you can shell out $158 application fee, Texas A n M college station is open till April 15. Their funding is not also based on early application as long as u r d right candidate.

You might want to consider MSc too. That PhD, except a Prof asked u to apply, it is a hard.

It is not yet over.

Are you for undergrad studies , if yes then i would not worry about it ........ Just state as you mention that you are going for computer science and the school says it falls under the umbrella of Liberal arts and Science

evelynnkeiru:
My visa was approved today all glory be to God.

Gcodded:

thank you.
what if the vo ask me to talk about the program, should I discuss liberal art or computer science

Lamabel:
Good day house, I am a silent follower of this thread and I must confess this thread has helped me immensely.
I studied occupational therapy in Nigeria and I got an admission to study masters of occupational therapy at Salem state university. Although it’s still conditional because I have to complete some courses that were not covered in our school curriculum.
I was recently asked to provide a financial document worth $25,121 so I can go about it. I didn’t know it will cost this much because it is the second most affordable schools for masters in my course.
I applied for a research assistantship and I am hoping to hear good news about it soon.
My problem now is I don’t know how to go about getting an account that has up to that amount. I was planning to use my uncle as a sponsor and I told him the tuition is $8,000 but now it’s a different thing.
The program starts by fall 2019.
My questions are
How soon do I have to send the financial document to get my I-20
Should I wait till when I hear the verdict for the research assistantship application.
I really just need a nudge in the right direction. Anyone who has done this before should please help out.
Thank you

LagosismyHome:


what concerns you with liberal arts ........ Talk on what you applied for , Computer science and what your dreams are regarding that

Time2win:


But computer science is not under liberal arts. The person interviewing him will be wondering what he actually applied for.

LagosismyHome:


you raise a good point but i think Computer can be under Liberal arts and science . It depends on how the school college is broken down. I20 Classification doesn’t have to be exact , a school can choose the umbrella it falls under ….. But at the same time , even if it not exact in all cases, they cannot choose something random or two things that are not related

I think Gcodded , you need to go back and check that this is not a mistake . If the school confirms that how they classify it then its ok . What school is this ? , I can check their website
