Your U.S.VISA
The DS-160, the fees, the I-20, the interview, your stamp. We process U.S. student, exchange and visitor visas from Nigeria, and we tell you the truth about your odds.
The U.S. visa just got harder for Nigerians.
Since 2025 the rules tightened sharply. The cost of a single mistake is now an entire re-application. Tap each shift to see what changed, and why a clean, first-time case matters more than ever.
Rules change without notice. We track every update, so your application reflects the policy in force the day you walk in, not last year’s.
Mafit Study Centre is an independent Nigerian education and visa-support firm. We are not affiliated with the U.S. government, and all visa decisions rest solely with U.S. authorities. Policies described here are current at the time of writing and can change at any time.
Built for high-stakes cases.
From form to stamp.
Eight stages stand between you and the consular window. Tap any one, or hit auto-walk, to see exactly what we handle and what stays with you.
One desk, every route.
How ready is your case?
Answer honestly. This is the same ground a U.S. officer covers in the first two minutes, and where most Nigerian applications quietly fall apart.
Indicative only. A real assessment needs your full documents. No tool can predict a consular decision.
Why going it alone is riskier than ever.
One shot, higher cost
Single-entry, three-month visas mean a refusal sends you back to the very start, new fees and all. Getting it right the first time is no longer optional.
214(b) is the silent killer
Most refusals are about intent and ties, not paperwork. We build the argument that you will return, and rehearse it until it is second nature.
Contradictions sink cases
One mismatched figure, date or name raises a red flag. We make your DS-160, funds and story line up perfectly before anyone reviews them.
The rules keep moving
Vetting, visa validity and consulate procedures all changed in 2025. We apply the policy in force today, not the version from last year’s blog post.
The interview is a performance
Two or three minutes decides everything. Our mock drills turn nerves into short, calm, credible answers that hold up under pressure.
Backlogs punish the unready
Slots are scarce and Lagos requires two visits. We plan your timing so you do not miss your intake while waiting on an appointment.
Trusted for the hard cases.
“I had already been refused once on my own. They rebuilt my whole file, drilled me on the ties question, and the second time it was approved in two minutes.”

Support that goes the distance.
