Good afternoon gurus in the house. Sorry to derail this thread. Please I wrote the GRE and got the following scores :
Quant - 153
Verbal 158
AWA 4.0

My question is: can I secure full funding with this score given that my undergraduate CGPA is 4.32/5.0 in Electrical Engineering?
The desired program is PhD/masters in Electrical Engineering.
Thanks in anticipation of your replies.

Any PhD program you're applying for in each school has their requirements. Hence, what you should lookout for is the requirements from each school as no one here will categorically tell you if you'll get full funding or not. Just my opinion ni oooo

No issues. Go with the two port for your interview. The embassy officials would fix it there.

Good evening all. I’m gradually recovering from the discouragement that comes from getting a denial.

Please see transcript below

Date: 19th August, 2021
Time: 11:00am
Location: Lagos
Funding: Zero

Brief background - I’m a graduate of ing, and I’ve also worked within the Healthcare space)

VO: please your port and I-20
Me: ed it (Good morning)

VO: I see you’re going to Texas A&M, how many schools did you apply to and why Texas A&M?
Me: I applied to 3 schools (mentioned them). I choose Texas A&M for several reasons:
- A senior colleague at work is a graduate of Texas A&M university and is doing very well in the position she heads. My sister is also a graduate of the school and is currently working in Canada (needed to mention that my sister had left the US because my first denial was for attending her graduation in 2019)
- The school also offers a minor I’m interested in (Economics of Health care in the US) which I can take within my 2 year stay without having to extend my duration in the US. I’d be studying Business Analytics.

Over the past 5 years, I’ve majorly worked in the Cancer space and have been able to identify the huge gap is data/ information and turning this into possible solutions for better healthcare in Nigeria. This made my decision to further my education easier as I have identified a gap that I am willing to address. Also my background in finance/ ing (which involves preparing and analyzing financial data),aids my desire to have an MBA in data science and data science is actually The future. Business analytics is an hybrid between science and business.
Converting medical data into useful information

VO: Kept typing without looking at me. I honestly got confused because there was an awkward silence.

VO: Who would be sponsoring you?
Me: My uncle, he’s a consultant at a teaching hospital and also consults and is on the board of several hospitals in Lagos.

VO: What’s his average monthly pay?
Me: about 5-8million monthly

VO: types for a short while and handed the blue paper. And said I didn’t qualify for the visa.

She made a face when I spoke about my reason for the school. She probably wasn’t convinced.
I’ve heard people say my “Uncle” being my sponsor was a red flag. But I’ve read transcript of people who got their Visa approved even with their uncle/ 3rd party as a sponsor.

I want to reapply (for Spring 2022) but I’m not sure if using my uncle will be a disadvantage again. I don’t have any other sponsor and don’t think it’ would look genuine for him to deposit the money in my for an interview I’d most likely be having soon (before the year runs out).

This is my seeking help/assistance on how to go about this in reapply.

Thank you in anticipation of your response.

Regards

Me: yes i was
I will be approving you visa, i went blank
Got the white paper and i said thank you ma, have a wonderful and lovely day. She started laughing and i left
A big thank you to @damite2ky and @hallelujahvoice you guys are the real deal. Thank you for taking out time to answer my questions no matter how silly it was and everyone who in one way or the other contributed. My little advice to intending visa applicants its better to be over prepared than under prepared then pray. Stand in front of mirrors and practice to build your confidence,practice with hand gestures if it helps you express yourself better, normalise talking to urself about your answers and please dont gram,and when speaking to a VO make it sound like a conversation. Good luck

Most Schools won’t it you with that GPA. Is this the final GPA after evaluation? I’d advice you evaluate your result if you haven’t.

Hi pls I need date in Abuja kindly reply via my email [email protected] or phone number 08071514045
