  • [thedrexeldesi] Invitation for the Ganesh Pooja on 7th September at 7pm.

emailed on Fri, 29 Aug 2008 11:57:05 -0000
Dear friends,

During the auspicious ten days of Ganapati festival, it is my pleasure
to invite everyone for the Ganesh Pooja at my place on 7th September
at 7pm. You can bring your friends and relatives for the event. Lord
Ganesha, also known as Vighneshwar, is the reliever of all calamities.
So let us pray together and get his blessings for our forthcoming
successful career. Since this might be my last pooja in Drexel,
participation in full strength would be highly appreciated. Please
feel free to bring flowers, fruits and/or sweets to offer our loving
Lord Gajanana. Prasad will be served after the pooja.

Please see the address attached:

3229, Apt 2,
Powelton Avenue,
Philadelphia, PA 19104

Thanks.

Vishal

Hi Santosh,
Frankly, I dont have much of an idea about the program
that you are admitted for and so I cannot give you an
honest opinion about assistantship n all. I can only
tell you my opinion that generally drexel is a good
school. needless to say, hardwork is always required
and am sure you will do good. By the way you have
scholarships n all so why worry so much..good luck!

Anyone who has an idea about this program can help you
better.
tc,
Krupa

Hello Santosh,

Heres a suggestion:
for the Bank statement that is required for obtaining your I-20, you
can go to any bank where your sponsor(yourself/parents/relatives) has
an account. whatever assets that your sponsor may have in terms of
personal money in the bank, fds,shares, property etc can be evaluated
by the bank and based on that,a letter will be given to you which you
can use to obtain the I-20.
Hope this helps.

take care,

I already got admission and merit based scholarship for tuitions.
For I 20 , university people are asking for bank letter with
amount of $36,000 in account.I was wondering what you guys did for the
same while applying for I 20? As I want to apply for Bank loan in India
