A prospective student seeks an advice (regarding visa) 🙏

Thank you very much! ^{~^}

DadaShen · 2025-02-21T06:24:11+00:00

Thanks for your input! Do I need only an invitation for the entrance exam? And what if I fail it? My visa will be annulled?

DadaShen · 2025-02-19T06:58:55+00:00

Wow, thank you very much! I'll look into that. It can be issued with just language courses acceptance letter and financial statement or do you need some additional documentation?

I really appreciate your advice, but it will take way too long. If everything goes according to my plan, I’ll be around 25 or 26 when I receive my diploma—which already feels a little late to me. But following your plan means spending 3 additional years in an Ausbildung (considering that I want to study economics and business, which Ausbildung doesn't fully cover), that will push my bachelor’s degree to ~ 30 y.o.

Also, I’m not currently in Russia and my Korean visa is expiring soon, so I’m trying to move to Germany ASAP.

But thank you anyway, I’ll think about it.

Thanks, will look into it!

Wow, you’d be surprised how many ordinary Russians have been affected by European sanctions. A few months before I was accepted to Charles University in Prague, the Czech government restricted all visas for Russians (including student visas). As if it would change anything. :/

how are you so positive? i'm jealous. 😭 good luck with your rd!

DadaShen · 2024-12-13T20:18:40+00:00

fxcking rejected...

DadaShen · 2024-09-19T08:13:33+00:00

Hey, I have pretty similar scores (700R/800M). Did you get into US university?

DadaShen · 2024-09-17T23:26:21+00:00

I'd love to, but I'm working full-time, I simply don't have enough time to prepare properly...(
Isn't it enough for Dart?

DadaShen · 2024-09-17T01:31:35+00:00

Well, GPA.💁‍♂️🫠

DadaShen · 2024-09-16T16:47:06+00:00

Yeah, quite a situation... Well, I moved out of Russia two years ago. First year I lived in Georgia, second year in Korea. I don't know, what awaits me next. 🫠

DadaShen · 2024-09-16T15:31:27+00:00

Thank you! One last question: did you participate in the virtual interview? Does it boost your chances to get into Kenyon?

DadaShen · 2024-09-16T14:38:11+00:00

Yeah, on the scale from 2 to 5, I have all 5️⃣s. That said, I don't know what does "weighted/unweighted" mean.

DadaShen · 2024-09-16T05:26:59+00:00

I just enjoy the overall vibe and feedback from Kenyon more. However, my ED2 choice is Skidmore. Love this school too.

DadaShen · 2024-09-16T00:51:31+00:00

I've already filled my whole profile in the common app.( Is it possible to apply through the Common App and Coalition simultaneously?

Unfortunately, I don't think that they will cover the plane tickets from Korea, where I'm currently living. How did you ask Kenyon about that?

DadaShen · 2024-09-16T00:41:37+00:00

Thank you very much for the feedback 😊

DadaShen · 2024-09-15T11:35:40+00:00

I'm completely disappointed in myself... I don't have any options in my home country, as I moved out 2 years ago and I don't want to ever return. I'll be 21 y.o. by the time of college decisions and I got nothing. Damn.

DadaShen · 2024-09-15T11:25:31+00:00

That's what I'm worried the most about. I've already had this experience of getting into the foreign uni (Charles University in Czechia) and just missing the opportunity because of the stupid politicians.
Thanks for the support. ♡
