My flight itinery is abj-istanbul-jfk-newark-greenville, south Carolina.
1. Will the change in airport from JFK to Newark be handled by the airline?
2. Is there a risk in transiting through JFK?

MyCaseIsDiffere:


The pride that followed me to my first interview no make me see road pass. I answered all the questions arrogantly, who born their father? Chai! Pride is a demon oooo. I was so proud that I didn't alter a single sir/ma. I held my Harvard folder with so much air of importance. And with the same pride, the VOs gave me the blue slip 4 solid times.

1. The question would be if the flight itinerary is being handled by one airline. I am sure your answer would be no, since the airline would not land in JFK and then tell you to go to Newark for the next flight if it's been handled by same airline.

So I believe your flight has at least two airlines, meaning you would have to find your way from JFK to Newark.


It all depends, i am changing airport from JFK to lga Guardia, and my two flights is still be handled by same airline

I guess someone has answered the number 2

I've been a silent follower, I am grateful to you all for your contributions, I have really gained a lot from this group, thank you for all you do.

MY VISA WAS APPROVED THIS MORNING

VO: good morning, pass me your passport and i20

Me: I did

VO: so you are going to the US to study computer science.

Me: I am actually going to study management information systems with a major in computer systems analysis.

VO: what did you study in your undergraduate

Me: I studied Electrical and Electronic engineering with a major in telecommunications which has got to do with informations. MIS too has got to do with solving business problems with information technology.

VO: Why do you need a master's degree now, since you have been working with **** state government since you finished your NYSC

Me: I need a master's degree in MIS now for career advancement. Besides, more ministries are being created in my state and their is serious need for database administrators.

VO: I can see you have relatives in the US, what do they do?

Me: yes, I have 2 brothers in the united state, they are students of UIS, one just graduated and will be starting his PhD this same month, the other is still studying MPH.

VO: who will sponsoring you

Me: My elder brother, he is in charge of the family funds.

VO: I'll be approving your visa, he brought out the white paper and circled collection point, I didn't even wait to hear when to pick it up. I just carried my file and left.

No SOA asked, I didn't even take any test and I applied to just one school. It was just God!

To God be the glory, thank you nairalanders.

Good evening everyone

Can a previously denied applicant request for an emergency date?

victree007:

Thanks for the tip. Yeah my connecting flight to McAllen Texas is actually cheap. I will try not to waste the whole 15hours at the airport. Thanks once again.

And be prepared for the weather too. It's always above 105°C during the day should you decide to take a walk around the city.

4gunners:
105°C ? That's more than boiling point of water. Can any human survive that?

oluezekiel:
I am sorry...that should be °F

TWoods:


Having read through your notes here, there is not much you need to prepare for. This is what you will need to overcome:

1. Why you spent 5 months in the US on a visit visa when you obtained the visa for a program. You'll need to explain that you have a job that permitted you to stay away for that long - apparently on short notice. If you took a leave of absence without pay, it may be useful to bring proof of this with you.

2. You're going for an MA, when you already have a masters degree - you'll need to explain why.
3. Your MA is in theology - from a country where a church can be found on every street corner and at least 1 in 3 people is a pastor. What is the purpose of this degree in your home country?
Frankly that's it. Come up with coherent explanations and hopefully you'll be able to convince your next VO. ia.

LagosismyHome:


Not sure why an admission would cause anybody to be full of pride but i seen little or big sucess get into people head . Still always odd to me

That been said . I been rooting for you since i first saw your post and really hope you get the visa.. you worked hard for that admission and deserves the visa. I wish you the very best

Do u have family in USA?
Which state is u school located?
Have u paid ur tuition fees?
Are u a first timer in USA or a returning student?
Do u have ticket to ur final destination?
Are u visiting or coming as a student?

The questions go on like that.....most CBP should be ok with 2 or 3 questions...

Time2win:

Brown2Green:


Once you get admitted for a Doctorate program, you'll most likely be automatically funded.

elhadji19:
.

Most people always think, PhD admissions must come with funding. I had 3 to 4 PhD admissions without funding too ooo.

Time2win:


yeah, I even have like 5 unfunded PhD admit. It's doesn't always come with funding.

LagosismyHome:


You need to check.. while it might be the same airline for both flight. You might be expected to arrange your own transport between those two airports and the airline won't be involved in that process at all

mroyato:


Congrats maam.
What school(s) did you apply to?

dumbiri99:


Wow. Even paracetamol and anti-malarial?
