In today's conversation, you will hear from Bukola Daramola. She came to the U.S. as an international student in 2019. She is currently a Ph.D. student at Morgan State University in Baltimore, Maryland. In this interview, we discussed applying for the National Interest Waiver (NIW) Greencard for Advanced Degrees, who is eligible to apply, the necessary documents needed to apply, the cost and average wait period, and tips on how to prepare your letters and resume.

• You can do it!
