The United States mission in Nigeria says it will prioritise applications for student visas and plan interview appointments “well in advance” of school resumption.
This was made known by the US mission country consular coordinator, Susan Tuller, on Friday.
According to her, the mission “will make every effort to assist student visa applicants in a timely fashion while keeping personnel and customers safe.”
“As we continue to prioritize the health and safety of our staff and customers, processing student visas remains a high priority for the U.S. Mission in Nigeria.

“We will increase the number of student visa appointments in May and June to ensure that we can offer appointments to as many students as possible. If your U.S. studies are scheduled to begin this Fall, we encourage you to schedule your appointment as quickly as possible,” Tuller was quoted her as saying.
She further reiterated that all student visa appointments must be booked through the specified US travel website.
Tuller, however, warned applicants against the use of third-party services, including touts, and fixers who broker visa appointments.
She added, “Both Nigeria and the United States benefit when Nigerian students study at one of our world-class educational institutions.
“To prepare for your U.S. educational opportunity, we encourage you to check out EducationUSA Advising Centers at our American Spaces in Abuja, Lagos, Ibadan, and Calabar, or at educationUSA.state.gov.”
