You can always use a mail forwarding address there are few out there not sure if i can list them here ? if so Mods please remove this ?

Aramex shop and ship, MyUS, DHL they all can provide you with a mailing address that can then forward any letters/ boxes to you in Egypt. I'm sure there are others around that i do not know off.

hope that helps :)

Sure you're eligible, if your grades are very good. A girl from my class at high school got a sport scholarship to a good college so sport is also an option if you're good at that.

Nope I am not good at sport and I was talking about postgraduate studies! you still in high school?

No I'm not haha. My school friend is still there, 20-something years later.

Postgrad - same considerations. If your undergrad grades are very good you stand a chance. Many colleges offer funded PhDs with teaching/research assistant jobs as part of the package.

You can't typically use a mail forwarding address for the DS260 - it needs to be a "real" address.
 
SusieQQQ said:
All kinds of immigrants, not just Mexicans! Many Asians (both east and subcontinent)! Many Africans!
Yeah it's expensive but anywhere as a student will be ...
I stand corrected but I think state colleges are well less than $20k a year for instate residents.

I have translated all my doc in 3 ministries in Cairo..I have sent some one to do them all, then certify them from ministry of foreign affairs in Smouha near Zahran mall or San Stefano. But now need to translate the army exemption cert., so after i know that office Nadory & nahas in 71 Sultan Hussein st, i'm thining to translate it there. Yes you need to make police certificate once you get scheduled, so it will be within the validity. I choose Dr. Amr cause its closer to my home in Gleem.

Sam - did you certify the military certificate from ministry of foreign affairs? (as you mentioned in San Stefano)
 
H.KABBANI said:
@megoman yes my interview was in Cairo
But the translator office said They don't attest it at the ministry of foreign affairs.

@H.KABBANI - so should i assume that i will not be asked to provide any attestation for the military record ? to be honest, the idea of missing any single detail in my documents is freaking me out !

Thanks for the details man
