Congrats Bro.
What's the cost of the car you're using now?
You deh work for FBI??

I don't know why you are asking but I sold my 05 Camry after graduation, went to the market to buy an 09-11 Camry also leaving my options open for a 12-14 model year but...

saw an SUV at a reasonable price and I switched plans.

I now drive an rx330 03-06 OR rx350 07-15, choose one and check the price online - I prefer carguru5 dot com.

Skills and online courses - 3dx, cour5era, l1nkedin learn1ng and other open online courses, course projects.

Adjustment of status and Reclassification of residency status

Job search, recruitment agencies, white collar n blue collar jobs

These will be addressed based on my Personal Experiences.

Some of these things are not special here. Every American dreams of getting a house someday and in most cities, you have to drive - public transport is almost non-existent.

If you want 2020 model, you go see collect and go begin pay small small.

If you be naija Yankee engineer, FOR EXAMPLE you earn 70k per annum (no be my salary be that o cheesy, I still be small boy), monthly take-home should be around 5k.

You can easily buy any used car between 7-15k without sweating it. Motor no be big man.

Truly people are watching.

I met a guy in my school, he said it never crossed his mind he could come school in the US.

From reading my thread, the thought crept in...

From thinking about it, he started seriously playing with the tots in his head...

From head games, he did a few permutation, addition and subtraction in real life...

Months later, he 'found' himself in the US and now enrolled for a Masters.



Hadampson, keep up the ginger, you never know who your ginger will ginger into taking a bold step to come to the better world.

STUDENT LOANS

As I said before, I and a few of my friends are beneficiaries of student loans.

Invest $40k for a Masters in engineering (mostly less than that) and make at least 65k in the first year, 75k in the third year and 85k+ after the 7th year - a sensible investment if you ask me.

I got a loan from a lender that usually does not lend to my institution, either it was my high GPA, previous work experience or the fact that they were careless about my application? I cannot tell.


Here's what I know - mp0wer, st1lt or pr0digy can give you a loan without a co-signer as an international student.
Check up the list of schools they support and apply to those schools. Use a normal naija bank statement to get a visa and come to the US to chase our dream with the loan you secured.

Any questions?
I'll answer to the best of my ability.
