You have used your hand to answer your questions. You know the requirements for emergency appointment, you know that you don't qualify yet, what other answer do you want?

You have to check the airline you want to use and the airport you intend to land in for their requirements. I doubt the government has any strict regulations for departure, though I may be wrong

No you're not required to take a covid test as the US doesn't require it.

Yes unless you want to go to the airport and dash them 50k. Take a covid test regardless. We are in the area of staying safe. Just check in that box.

Congratulations. Can I PM you?

I got to the embassy by 6am. We were around like 40 as I estimated. I didn't spend up to 2 hours standing and waiting.

Me: Good morning
VO: Good morning, your port and I-20
Me: (ed both to him)
VO: your DS-160 and place your 4 fingers on the machine.
Me: (I did everything he told me to do)
VO: why are you going to the US?
Me: I am going for a master’s degree in petroleum engineering at the University of Louisiana at Lafayette
VO: why this school?
Me: UL has a centre for optimization of petroleum system which aligns with my research interest and I was also given full funding.
VO: did you apply to other schools and name them?
Me: I applied to Louisiana state university, University of Kansas, University of Oklahoma, Texas Tech University and this University of Louisiana at Lafayette
VO: where do you currently work?
Me: I work as a performance analyst at TradeDepot Limited
VO: Trade what
Me: TradeDepot
VO: what do they do there?
Me: It's a retail distribution company and I work as a performance analyst.
VO: so how does this correlate with petroleum engineering?
Me: (at this point, I was lost; I didn't know what to say again) I wanted to start explaining how I love data science and Artificial Intelligence before the VO cut in..
VO: wait, what did you study in your undergraduate?
Me: (looking for how to regain my confidence back) I graduated with a first-class degree in petroleum engineering (me adding the ”first-class” to convince the VO that I understand the course quite well)
VO: (looking convinced) are you married?
Me: No
VO: any kids?
Me: No
VO: types to like a minutes and says, ”I will be approving your visa”.
Me: (while VO was typing, I said, ”Lord let your will be done”)


I noticed a lot from people that were denied and I easily predicted that the VOs weren't convinced.
A lady was asked why she chose a school and she said, ”the school offers a lot of courses”. The VO was like, so other universities don't have several courses? At that point, she sensed she was going to be denied.
Another guy with funding was asked who pays the rest, he said his bro. VO asked what his bro does, he said the bro works so so so and has a farm and does this and that. The VO didn't look convinced because it looked like the guy was beating around the bush.
Tips: once you have full funding, you already have a 95% chance of your getting approved; you just need to be confident and add the God factor.
If you have deficit, please try to clearly state what your sponsor does.

Thanks to everyone who has dropped his or her transcript here and those that give answers. Also thanks to my friend, Matluck and my two Gees, Kg and Karen.

Covid 19 test requirements for outbound flights are determined by the country you're travelling to. The US doesn't require it upon arrival

If you picked a date after denial how did you guys do it because it clearly says if you have been denied in the last six month, you should click it and when I do no date come up, hope it’s not regular you guys are clicking if not you all will be bounced out oooo and your money gone.

Pls if you have been denied and gotten a date, when you go for the interview and you weren’t bounced back, pls let us know. Be out clearly said there that if you lie, it’s straight denial.

Good day bosses,
I know the discussion going on now is about interview. I hope I get a response for this though.

So little story, I am a graduate of Industrial Chemistry (B.Tech 4.05, GRE: 324;3.5), currently serving, I am looking to apply to 2 or 3 Chemical Engineering program and I am having difficulty finding a safe school to pitch my application since I don't have an Engineering background. Please can the experts in the house help out with a suggestion?

By the way, all the program I am gunning for is a Ph.D. plus for my GRE, my Quant is 166 and during my undergraduate, I did 5 mathematics courses and I had distinction in all.
