Y’all are conversant with cases of crimes committed by Nigerians because it’s your country. Everyone knows that Indians are the undisputed number one when it comes to criminal acts in the U.S and Canada. From my experience, they’re the worst set of people on earth. Employers know them as liars because they claim what they’re not on their resume. A friend once asked an analytics guy of how to get an analytics job post graduation, the only advice he was given is to never lie like Indians. They are number one in exam malpractices in the U.S. Go to YouTube and search for Indian scammers and you’ll be amazed of how many videos are there. In fact, there are many YouTube channels focusing on those scammers Is it Mexicans and drugs you want to talk about or MS 13 gangs from Central America? Long story short, if crimes were to be used to restrict entry to the U.S, the hammer will fall on India, first, and many others before getting to us. 24 Likes |

You should read the original posts that led to the one you quoted. There's no where I said or opined that Nigerians are the worst criminals in the US. I only quipped the cyber crime part as a factor that may be considered in the future if young Nigerians in the US keep engaging in crimes against American people and businesses. The guy that said he had time to tackle me just took everything out of proportion because he didn't read to understand. It is baffling! As for when the US embassy is opening, I really wouldn't say the border will remain shut throughout this year. In fact, the department of state is currently working with EU to design reciprocal rules of engagement for international travelers from Europe and those going from the U.S. But nobody knows when things will normalise, that is for sure.

Hello Guys, I have been following this thread for quite a while now, and it has been highly informative for me. I am preparing for visa interview whenever the embassy give the green light for F1 interviews, and I will like a thorough review/criticism of my proposed transcript. Please do not hesitate to raise further questions that I can also answer. VO; Good morning, pass me your I-20 Me: Good morning, here it is (passing the document to the officer) VO: what are you going to the US for? Me: I'm going to earn a doctoral degree in Sport and Exercise Science, with emphasis on Biomechanics at the University of Northern Colorado (UNCO), Greeley. VO: Why did you choose UNCO? Me: UNCO has a highly regarded Sport and Exercise Science doctoral program that uses an interdisciplinary approach to prepare one for teaching, research and scientific writing. These are skills/competencies critical to take my career in the academia forward. Asides the top-notch biomechanics research facilities at UNCO, working with an outstanding mentor like Prof JS, in a nascent research area of postural stability among oncology patients will prepare me to standout in the competition for faculty appointments on my return to Nigeria. UNCO has a graduate faculty placement rate close to 100 percent. Additionally, I was offered a full time graduate teaching assistantship position that came with full tuition waiver, and a monthly stipend to upgrade my laboratory teaching skillset. VO: How did you hear about the school? Me: As a Biomechanics enthusiast, I follow happenings on an online Biomechanics forum called Biomech-l. It was on this platform that I read about Prof JS's research and the school. Following our email exchanges and conversations, he encouraged me to apply to the PhD program of his school built on personalized mentorship. This mentorship and interdisciplinary approach to research is what I have always wanted for my doctoral training. VO: How many institutions did you apply to? Me: I only applied to UNCO. Though I contacted Professors at University of Pittsburgh and University of Kentucky, I got no response from either. VO: Did you write any exam. Me: Yes, GRE. Test of English was waived for me on request, based on my academic and work history. VO: What was your Test Score Me: I scored 294; V-150 & Q-144 VO: what do you mean when you said work history? Me: I have been lecturing at the Department of PT, of a state university for over three years now. I have also been involved in a number of research activities that as resulted in peer reviewed journal publications. VO: What will your program be like? Me: My PhD program at UNCO entails taking courses such a Biomechanics of Locomotion, Advanced Biomechanics, and undertaking supervised practicum in college Teaching. I expect to learn high-level research methods and technologies, in addition to professional standards in clinical practice and Biomechanics applications for cancer rehabilitation. The program will cover advanced statistics, research design, quantitative methods, laboratory techniques and computer-aided research. VO: What will your responsibility be as a graduate assistant? Me: I am expected to work 18 hours per week as an instructor of record for undergraduate students in the Biomechanics laboratory and also conduct research. VO: What do you plan to do with your degree? Me: I intend to return back to my lecturing position at the state university on a much improved appointment to the one I currently have. In collaboration with the faculty at UNCO and biomechanists around the world, I hope to setup a biomechanics research laboratory that would be focused on improving the quality of life of cancer survivors in Nigeria. I am open to your reviews please. 3 Likes 2 Shares |

Majorly because of the uncertainties surrounding Fall 2020... The Sevis fee could be paid at least 3 days before your interview date, so there’s no need to rush. Peradventure this Fall also doesn’t work, and we have to defer till Fall next year (for programs with no January start date), the Sevis fee MAY expire before you book your interview next year. So it’s better to lose the visa fee of N62,400 only, than to loose both the visa and Sevis fee that amounts to about N200,000. But if you have it or feel like paying, you’re totally free to. 4hranc: 3 Likes |

Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 15 by Firefox01: 6:07pm On May 24, 2020 |
timidot:From what I've read pages back, writing GRE makes you seem serious in front of the VO but not writing it doesn't mean you won't get the Visa. It depends on how you handle your interview and the VO at the end of it all. 3 Likes |
