    That Tax deduction is sooo annoying. Lol. I can totally relate. In my own case, I had to go to our graduate secretary to explain why my money reduced. Your girl has calculated all her money in naira. And Alas! Taxes happened. Thanks for explaining this.

    It's so refreshing to hear from you nwanne, I'm planning to go for my PhD in the US as soon as I take the GRE and finish a research paper. I don't have a Masters degree but I learnt I can get a PhD without one. My undergraduate degree is strong and I've had 6 years of progressive work experience here in Nigeria. I also plan doing teaching assistantship when I get over there.

    Hey Aladi, i have a question. I have a graduate assistantship from my university which promises to pay 2,500 USD every month for the entire 4 years of my PhD program. Will i still need to provide personal bank statements at the embassy when I go for my visa application or does the graduate assistantship letter from the school cover proof of funding and hence,no need for personal bank statements?

My department covers all expenses mentioned on my I-20 and I’m concerned if I still should show proof of funding as extra or not…
