Is there a better way on can receive dollars that it would yield more naira than using send wave. Send waves current exchange is $1 to #382.

Sendwave will do $1 to N400 for anything over $50 ... think that may be the highest you will get for now without involving strangers/third parties and risking uncertainty

I am planning to move to USA for my PHD study next year.
My question is all about life after studies. How long and how easy is it gonna take to get green card upon my graduation in USA. I am going to come to US with my family though.

If you give more details about yourself, you could get sharp answers that will address your questions. Are you a man (>35 and especially >40) or you're a guy (<35)? What's your educational record and work experience like? Are you an academic in Naija? Which field are you into? And which field do you hope to do this PhD? Do you have research experience? Papers in decent places? Finally, do you have profs who are willing to write you the type of letter that I just finished writing for a student? . A letter that will make oyinbo beg you to come their country?

To your question, green card is doable. But one thing though - provided the government does not change status quo that much and if you;re self-petitioning, you would need a decent job with decent pay and a good research record. This is just one way. There are several ways/categories, and it's a good idea to do some google searches. it's all on the internet.

To summarize, it's relatively easier (not easy though) to get the green card via one of the categories if one i) has an advanced degree ii) has a nice job iii) has research papers (sometimes with citations) and iv) has the grace of God. In fact, people get US green card from outside the US. There is a colleague in South Africa who will be applying and getting the US green card there in SA. This person seeks the green card so they can enter and leave for life. Academic jobs in SA are very lucrative, at least at the professor cadre level, so this person does not plan to "ja komot" from SA, but they are open to opportunities nonetheless.

I hope this helps you. Meanwhile, if an academic institution hires you as assistant professor after your PhD, then you will get a green card. This is because many of them initiate the process of your green card application immediately you join them. In most cases, you join them with an H1b, which they obtained for you (no cap for academic people for H1B), and then they file green card for you once you are hired. The sad thing is just that academic jobs are hard to get in the US, but it becomes easier either if you i) attended a strong program or ii) do a path-breaking research which your advisor does a good job "shouting" about.

All the bestest, Sir.

This is good GPA, but good GPA is not enough, far from it.

Review mine and others' posts on this thread and then come back with your questions. Some of the questions being asked and asked had been answered.

So review and come back with specific questions. As I said, GPA not enough. I should also add that many schools these days say GRE is optional, but it will take a miracle for a school to reject candidate B in favor of candidate A if B and A are otherwise fully identical but B has GRE and A does not.

So, one place to start is to spend the next 6-8 months prepping fire for the GRE. Yeah, it's math and english and writing, but no it's not just math and english and writing.

This should give you an example of how to plan ahead - https://biochem.oregonstate.edu/content/admission-information. Oregon is not bad, although I admit I know very little about your field, biochem. I'm just trying to give general advice. Hopefully a biochem admissions expert will appear here and answer you

Thanks for all your responses all this is the school fault they weren't even prepared to have international students this fall that am sure of it was just this week my advisor told me all in person classes has been filled up that she's sorry. Then my DSO later replied my message I sent last week saying she has confirmed from the sevp rep for the school and I was advised not to travel at all if my courses were online.

Deegayes:
Please don’t try it if your classes are fully online , you will be turned back at the port of entry. People were denied entry. Also avoid Air France , they will not allow F1 /J1 students to board. I and a friend who is on a J1 visa got to the airport and were not allowed to board. Currently they are still holding on to a huge dome of money from us

Guys please I am doing my interview outside Nigeria and their embassy just opened meanwhile my school resumption of classes is 24th August, should I still book for an interview for next week because embassy has promised to give priority next week, do you think I should or defer?

Can you shed more light?

Are u going for ur interview outside NG with a Nigerian passport?

Yes, please PM. But it would have been nice to ask and answer questions here so that posterity can benefit.

Meanwhile, thanks for your comments. But you know, I've been into the game for many, many years, so that's expected. You too will be the same or better if you have same experience.
