Good morning everyone. A friend just told me about this page. My visa was denied yesterday at the consulate in lagos. This was my transcript Me: good morning VO: pass me your passport and document. Why did you choose your school. Me: I chose it because it is accredited by the project management institute global accreditation centre for project management and also offers it under the department of tech and construction management and because I studied Building tech as an undergraduate, it was essential I continued in the same path. VO: when did you graduate Me: I graduated in 2016 VO: from which school Me: the university of lagos VO: did you take the GRE Me: yes I did (she looked at me like I should day my score) I had 309 in my GRE and 105 in my TOEFL. (I didn’t mention my school didn’t require toefl, just the GRE) VO: so what have you been doing since you graduated Me: I worked with the state ministry of works and housing for a while where I discovered there is increasing need for qualified project managers because a lot projects functionally fail at their delivery dates, I proceeded to work for my former lecturer who is a consultant for various construction companies, going to sites with him and applying PM tools and techniques. Currently I work at a bank headquarters in the project management services department, evacuating the performance risks of various companies who come for loans or extensions on their loans to execute their projects. VO: who is your sponsor Me: my elder sister VO: what does she do Me: she’s supplies oil and gas to companies as a marketer for nnpc. (Forgot to mention she also manages our mums properties where we collect rent including one hospital) Vo: pass me her bank statement . (Then she typed for a long time). Has she ever travelled before? Me: no she hasn’t. (She has a Schengen visa she never used though I didn’t mention that, and she was denied a Canadian visa earlier this year but I don’t know how the VO will connect me to that) Vo:are you married or single Me:I’m not married. Vo: I’m sorry I won’t be approving your visa, though I feel you’ll be qualified at a later time. Me: thank you. (Then I left). It was the last at window 7 who nods a lot. I don’t know what the next step should be, though I’m thinking to sending an email to my school to keep them updated of this hitch. The total cost was about 8 million and I had a bank statement of 17 million. I need advice please. Thank you. |

Please guys... Bracelum, time2win, brown, lagosismyhome and others, quick question, and would it be okay if I draw the attention of the VO to transaction history BTW me and my sponsor in which I used to pay my tuition deposit to the school? Kindly share your opinions. Mbok! |

Temi87: Why this school? Your response was not impressive.. How's the SOA? Any lump sum? What have you been doing.. My take , this was not well organized. What's the school? I think you'll be fine. You need some personal work on how to respond. 1 Like |

Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 15 by Temi87: 7:33am On Jun 12, 2019 |
Yes maybe my response to why the school wasn’t that impressive but it’s honestly why I chose it. I didn’t want to do a masters in construction management as that’s more limiting and I can still parlay the masters in project management in other sectors. What kind of response can I say to that question. Thank you There were various lump sums there but that’s the capital she uses for her business, about 4.2 million and it’s always returned with profits. I’ll organise my answer and post a new proposed transcript. The school is Missouri State University thank you for your time. Brown2Green: |

Good morning gurus, pls help me check my proposed visa interview transcript... V.o: Y r u goin to d US? Me: I am goin to d US for my masters degree program in biochemistry and biotechnology at d Eastern Illinois university, Charleston. V.o: How did u knw abt dis skool? Me: I made an extensive online research abt my program of choice and got a list of schools dat offer d program and then went ahead to individually check the schools websites before settling for EIU. V.o: Tell me abt ur program Me: The master of biochemistry and biotechnology program at EIU is an advanced interdisciplinary program wit courses taken from 3 diff depts, d biological science dept, chemistry dept as well as d business dept. D program comprises a 34 semester hour curriculum wich is split into 19 SH of core courses, 9 SH of elective courses and 6 SH of internship. Durin dis program, I'll take a total of 9 courses which are.... (list my courses) V.o: Whta's ur highest degree? Me: I av a BSc in biochemistry from Bleep Uni V.o: Year of grad? Me: 2017 V.o: Wat av u been duin? Me: In Dec 2018, I started working at Bleep ltd as an healthcare assistant to d pharmacist. I help in reading prescriptions and also assist d pharmacists in dispensing OTC medications to patients. Also, I help to collect biological samples from patients for laboratory clinical investigations like FBS, FBC, MPW, BCT(Will mention d abbreviations in full) V.o: How many applications? Me: 3. EIU, USC, Uwindsor. V.o: How many admits? Me: For nw, I av only gotten an offer from EIU but sincs itz my first choice, I decided to accept d offer Nd move on wit my visa application. V.o: Why EIU? Me: What mainly captivated me abt EIU is d opportunity to work wit Prof Britto Nathan in his neurological laboratory where he has an on-goin research project using biochemical substances to study d pathogenesis of brain cell damage in aged humans which leads to dementia such as Alzheimer's disease and this is a project I'm really interested in bcuz psycho-neurological disorders require adequate medical attention especially in 3rd world countries like my country Nigeria where mental decline is still being ignored and seen as a normal part of d aging process. His project is being funded by the Alzheimer's association and d US National Institute Of Health. Secondly, d EIU master of biochemistry and biotechnology program is capstoned wit an internship placement instead of d usual thesis which other programs have. This internship placement will help give me a hands-on industrial and real-life practical experience to adequately prepare me for life after studies which is d labour market. V.o: Why dis course? Me: Biochemistry plays a very pivotal role in d daily human healthcare practise. Dis program will help equip me wit d necessary skills required to work in d scientific research laboratory wit oda healthcare practitioners to provide preventions and cures to various human diseases, using a wide range of modern molecular, biochemical and cellular techniques. V.o: Can u tell me some of d courses u'll be taking? Me: Techniques in biotechnology, cell physiology, advanced biochem(list all 9 courses) V.o: Wich of ur cousres is more of interest to u and y? Me: Medicinal chemistry is more of interest to me and datz bcuz medicinal chemistry is d chemistry of drugs. D medicinal chemistry course will also take me 2ru d basics of pharmacology. Pharmacology is d study of drugs and body interactions, nd dis is a vry vital course for anybody like myself who plans to go into d production of pharmaceuticals. I'll get to knw abt drugs, wat dey do to d body and how d body handles dem wen administered. V.o: Can u tell me some of ur professors? Me: Dr Tom Canam who is my academic advisor nd will take me bioenergy nd bioresources during my program, Dr melody who will take me organizational behaviour, Dr Edward who will take me medicinal chemistry, Dr Britto Nat who will take me neurobiology... V.o: Wat will dis course do for u? Me: D vast knowledge acquired from dis program will help build me to fully launch into d research nd development of new quality drugs and drug products to help improve pples health, increase deir life span and drastically reduce d mortality rate of life threatening diseases like Cancer, Parkinson's... V.o: Plan after graduation? Me: After my program, I plan to come bak to Nigeria to secure a job in a multinational pharmaceutical company like Pfizer, Novartis, Sanofi. It is my plan to work wit dem for a period of abt 5-7yrs to gather some experience, after which I'll move on to set up my own biopharmaceutical firm, also here in Nigeria. V.o: Can u tell me some cities close to ur skool? Me: Mattoon, Lincoln, Champaign, Chicago. V.o: Who's gonna pay for dis? Me: My dad.

Temi87: Visa interview is all about tailoring your words in a way it creates a positive impression to the VO. So it is not about how it impresses you but how it impresses the VO. Because to them every non-immigrant is a potential immigrant until proven otherwise. Your SOA, how was the cash flow? |

clapper04:Haha. I understand. Pure mathematics looks like quantitative philosophy. Purity, abstraction, rigour, and beauty are central. For all its abstraction, very deep results in number theory have found use in cryptography and cyber security. Graph theory is used extensively in traffic modelling in transportation engineering. Pure mathematics is God's way of talking with men. 4 Likes |

Ogunwandetosin: How did you hear about the school? You might want to add a reference you used in searching.. The reference MUST be what your course is basically about. How many admits? 1 so far. Make it simple In why this course and what will this course do for you.. I didn't see any place you talked about your likely role and organization . Don't wait till they ask you what you'll be doing after Grad because of lately questions don't get to that before decisions are made. 2 Likes |

tmd: Don't worry about not getting fully funded. You're in a good place and if you play your game well, $44K per year will be insignificant compared to the gains you will get from your network and the Emory brand. I've got two advice for you; 1. Work closely with your classmates (who should be smart and well-accomplished people): This is the greatest benefit of attending elite schools because most of your classmates are smart and well-accomplished. Those individuals will be the future leaders in the society. When you build friendships with them and compete with them, you will discover that you will keep pushing yourself harder and you will keep improving. Compete with them in class, extracurriculars and the job search. You will discover how transformative your Emory experience will be after two years. This is just like the Ronaldo vs Messi competition. When Ronaldo sees Messi doing great, he becomes motivated to do better and vice versa. The healthy competition impoves both of them simultaneously. This is one of the biggest benefits of attending an elite school with super-smart classmates. 2. Build your network: Emory (just like other elite colleges) hire the very best Professors. These Professors have tons of industry connections through industry experience in top organizations. You won't be surprised to see leaders of top organizations in your faculty (yeah, those elite schools pay tons of $$ to hire the best faculty). So, try and build connections with those Professors and get them in your network. You don't need to network with every Professor, but make sure that by the time of graduation, you have 5 Professors (with solid connections) that you can comfortable claim to have a solid relationship with. Do not limit your network to your Professors. Check your alumni resources. Your school should have notable alumni in top organizations and they will be willing to connect with an Emory student. If you're lucky to have a strong connection with an accomplished alum who knows many other accomplished people, you're set for life . It happens a lot!!! So, these two benefits are what you're paying $44K per year to acquire. To be honest, you can't put a price tag on them because they are invaluable. So, make sure you spend significant time building your network and leveraging all the benefits Emory has to give you. Five years from now, $44K per year will mean nothing to you. 13 Likes 3 Shares |
