Me: Good Morning sir with a light smile
Vo: Good Morning

Vo: Please your documents
Me: Here, and I ed the Intl port, DS 160 and i20

Vo: Why then did you choose this school?

Then I continued like, The department of computer sc at TSU offers 2 alternative tracks to the program, the general concentration and the computer network concentration. The computer network aligns well with my area of interest. I also found out about an ongoing research on Distributed Computational Network.... I wanted to continue.... before he cuts in with OK

Vo: Started typing ooo... I was busy praying for my mind, and kept my gaze on him. I even dey observe his shirt, tie and teddy ooo. I think he was looking at me from the corner of his eyes.

Vo: Ok. your visa will be approved. Pick it up in 3 days time, by Tuesday, circling the DHL office address at Muri Okunola...
Me: I collected the white sheet and said Thank you. Have a nice day.

wiseman2392:

Ok. Thanks

jah101:


Thank you bro...Finally Got a lucky Date

Did you print a new ds 160? Did u a port photo?

slimmy05:
Ignore it. Its normal. Go with your rescheduling.

Bro. I have rescheduled. But how do I print the new ds 160??
I actually filled a new ds 160 after paying the MRV at GTB, I got stucked at the port photo. I didn't photo in the first application.

MrMann1:
I am trying to re-apply. Please what is the next step after visa payment.

Please is it OK to write my port number on the National Identification Number while filling a new application

I am trying to re-apply. Please what is the next step after visa payment.

4X4:

i noticed the phone u sold me reboots sometimes
whats d reason

Did you install a new game or a new app, cos that might caused the issue.
Please try these steps:
Go to Settings > phone update & then tap check for updates

OR

Go to Settings > about and tap & tap reset your phone

NOTE: Please use a new and original SD memory card for that phone

4X4:

The phone makes sense but when ur doing business try to put ur home address like I do because it makes people trust u more that u have nothing to hide .nice one I like the phone u sold me .

Thank you. Nice doing business with you.

DeeTus:
Hey man, did you get my mail?

I lost my fone, I just gat back online, reason i have been off. I will check and revert sire.

Modified: I got it. Thanks. We've gat really wonderful people on this thread.#Bless

wiseman2392:

If it's about why did u choose this school? If I were u I would tell them about the scholarship if u had one( mention the amount), the research going on in your department of the school and try to mention the Professor in charge of the research. All other things follow but start with those points.

Bro. I had all this in mind na... But I was waiting for her to ask me... I did not have any scholarship, but research, professor name and others were ready to come out.

4X4:

guy are u for real deliver the phone ill pay u d 1k transportation

I will be delivering the fone today. Will call you when I reach osapa

xkunzo:




To other people comment , u are not straight forward your career prospect , you said u are going for computer science and the same u come coming to work as network engineer , science and engineering are both different area , be more focus and let ur answer be short in meaning way , that is my own point of view o

There is an alternative track to the course.. Computer sc - general and Computer sc - computer network. I was waiting for why did you choose this school?? thanks for your input

akinalabi:
Yes I know we have a sports betting thread (which I visit everyday), I just thought putting this up for NairaBET special announcements won't be a bad idea.

So we start with tomorrow's N100,000,000.00 bonus giveaway. Yes you READ that right. That is One Hundred Million Naira. Tomorrow is Christmas Day so we have decided to give out free NairaBET credits. If you have credited your in the month of December 2015, you are going to get a FREE credit into your .

Credits will be given out randomly. Some will receive N500, some will receive N1,000 etc. We wanted to spread it out as much as possible so it won't just be a lucky few collecting big money.

These are the and conditions.

- You have to use the whole amount to place a bet before you can withdraw. For example, if you were credited with N500, it must be used on one bet

- The bet must be an accumulator of a minimum of 5 games

- Minimum odds for each game in such accumulator is 1.2

There we go. Merry Christmas in advance.

Many more nice stuffs will be announced here. Watch out.

Nice concept boss

moshoodn:


I quoted you days back...... No response.

Bro transport fare is high. Na 1k I will charge you for delivery. Thanks

4X4:


ok ill pay you 14k for the lumia 535 dual sim and also an additional 500 Naira for your transportation if you can deliver it to me tomorrow 24th dec in lekki 09051948827

Sorry I am just getting this message. I can deliver but the amount for transport fare is too small

profojah:

Saying your uncle is your guardian shouldn't be the reason why you were denied. An uncle can as well be your guardian.. I always crave people's indulgence to always be overly meticulous when filling the DS-160. I think you should actually prepare very well on the last question what will you do after this course,. One quick question bro, what was written on your i20?. Is it Msc or Post-baccalaureate?

Post Bac sir

udeyokay:

If you start a new appointment you will see it.
Just click the top link on the left menu. I hope you have your Gtb receipt ready.

Oh... I was trying to see a favourable date cos the resumption is already close.
I dunno I had to make payments first. No wonder. Thanks

Mayflowa:
Here is my promised transcript. I was only asked three questions:

VO: Goodmorning

ME: Goodmorning (with a smile)

VO: Can I have your documents

ME: Yeah...Sure! (ed my port and DS confirmation page)

VO: And the I-20. (which I did. She took some time to study my I-20 form and then went on to check my details on her computer. Looking at me)
How did you make your choice of school?

ME: I got to know about University of ABC through academic textbook. (she was staring at me and so I fired on). As a Lecturer at the University
of Benin, I use different local and foreign textbooks to facilitate my course. One of the textbooks that stood out is Fluid Power Pumps by
Prof. Noah Manring. The professor is a faculty member at the University of ABC. I got interested in his research and I ed him. (I noticed a sly smile on face. She looked impressed)

VO: Who is paying for this?

ME: Its a federal government scholarship. I named the agency handling it

VO: Where did you do your master?

ME: Cranfield University, United kingdom.

VO: Your visa is approved. Get your visa with the instruction from this document (gave me a white sheet).

Congrats

Please how can I see the list of available date for interview appointment??

Mikkyphaton:
I dont really think so, if there was any contradiction the VO would have made known that point to you to defend it. All the same just work on giving better responses esp on the 'what are u going to do after ur program' as advised by Deetus. Good luck

Ok.. Thanks

DeeTus:
Sorry for this particular denial. You really tried but your reasons for coming back to Nigeria after your studies weren't solid enough. There are quite a number of reasons to give to nail it in your next interview. Computer Science would always revolutionize our ideas, the way we do things.

Don't worry, you'll get it next time. Will give you some tips later.

Thanks DeeTus

fregkay:
sorry about the delay bro,but I think your study plan should have been that you intend to do your Post-bacca studies in Info tech at the texas southern university for a duration period of 12months.

Ok. Thanks
