My US student visa was denied last Friday 24th June, 2022

At Abuja Embassy

I-20 is 59k and all the funding is from my uncle

I am a female and was interviewed by a male officer. I cried so much that I didn't eat the whole day.
I don't even know my next line of action for now. I won't give up hope though. I pray for divine direction.

Here is my transcript

A very long read, you can stop after the Congratulations from the VO. ��
So I have been denied twice in 2021 for MS Software engineering (zero funding). After the second denial, I decided not to go back unless something tangible changes in my application. So applied to as many schools with better application dossier( GRE, Duolingo, SOP Rewritten, Changed Recommenders, Mailed Profs)

I got to the embassy around 6:10am, it's just 7mins trek to the hotel I stayed. The hustlers approached for stapling, told them I be veteran for embassy. lol��

Interview proper:

The very beautiful lady, she just approved 4 F2s going to meet their Dad and husband. I jumped to her front and helped the woman carry her youngest son dragging not move. (Baba, move on time nah).

VO: Let us do your biometrics.
Me: Alright..
VO: Have you been to the US before.
Me: No, I have not had reason to.
VO: What do you do presently?
Me: I work as a software Engineer with *********. My duties includes Applications development, system analysis, coding, testing and deployment. (And some other functions with Jargons as the lady dey nod head dey go)
VO: What will you do after completion of your program?
Me: I will be picking up a role as Senior Research Software Engineer at the National Center for Artificial Intelligence and Robotics.
VO: Do you have commitment from this place:
Me: ( Thank God for @Euler transcript, I quickly formulated something asking @Tumi if it's right yesterday afternoon) Yes, I have been in correspondence with a director at this place and I am aware PhD is the minimum requirement for this role, moreover with my years of Experience in the field coupled with the advanced skills the PhD would equip me with, I will definitely be employed.
VO: You said National Center...
Me: National Center for Artificial Intelligence and Robotics ( said it slowly while she types)
VO: Are you married?
Me: Yes, I am married to a lovely wife and I have an adorable daughter.
VO: Will they be coming to join you?
Me: Yes, my wife is presently engaged with her business but she will visit with my daughter and I will also visit them during Summer break if chanced to.
VO: (Made a gesture of one, as in one daughter)
Me: I said yes, one daughter for now. ( She types)
VO stood up and went to bring blue papers and pink, I was like Mama, no do this nah, she went back to pick the white ones and said Congratulations, this paper will tell you how to pick up your passport.

Collected the white paper and left.

Abby212:
Good evening all, please I am new here. Have been on the Canada study thread but haven't gotten my study permit so I am looking at trying the US but I have some questions.

I have a B.Sc in mass communication (part time) 2.2. I am looking at getting a Graduate research assistantship job cos of funding but I don't know how to go about it. Please can anyone help for direction.
Plan B
Also, does US like Canada look at academic or progression. I would have probably read social works but at the same time, I am looking for funding too. Please how can I go about this?

Thanks so much.

Hello Nairalanders,
Pls I need someone to talk.
I had my OND in public management, I am trying to apply for an undergraduate degree in USA .

Could someone please advise how I can go about this and can the school accept my OND result such that I will start from year 3 directly without needing to start from 100 level?

Keren12:
What does it mean when a school request a financial guarantee? Is it bank statements or affidavits?

UmmZayd:


It's like an affidavit of support or sponsorship letter. Ask if they have any particular format or sample. Ask if they mean a Statement of Account too for clarification

khoray:
Hello house!

My sister's interview appointment in a few days was rescheduled by US consulate and moved by one month. We have no idea what is going on. Do you have any suggestions on what we can do. She travelled in yesterday and we received the email today.
