Hi Nishta,
Thanks for sharing this. I am concerned about 6th reason. My sister is currently working in US on H1b visa status would it hamper my visa approval?
Just one family member shouldn't be so damaging to your application. Try to show strong ties to India via your parents back here. Good luck!

Hi, do you think Rochester institute of technology counts as a "Well-known school"? I currently only have admits from RIT but I think I can get into UB and Uc boulder as well. Would appreciate a response!
Nothing great about it. Be prepared to hustle on your own and then you can attend.
@@ScholarStrategyTV I just got an admit from Boston University. Is that good enough in your opinion?
@@Abhishek-fe3zs it has big location advantage of being in Boston. Should help you in finding internships more than in RIT.
@@ScholarStrategyTV I know I've asked you two questions already but I need a lot of opinions to decide. I have a 40% scholarship from RIT. I can do my entire MS in under 25 lakhs if I get an on campus job there. BU is pretty expensive and the MSAI program is only 3 semesters long. Is the name really worth the extra money? Also, should I request i20 immediately? I think I'll get admits from University at Buffalo, UC Boulder and if I'm lucky, Johns Hopkins. I'd like to know your opinion on this if you don't mind.
@@Abhishek-fe3zs 1. Boston Uni isn't worth the money.
2. If it's only 3 sems long, if you don't get a job before then, you'd have to leave the US in 60 days after graduation. If you have the choice to finish in 4 sems, then you'll have some breathing room.
I always thought it's not that much tough for Indian students getting US study visa than Pakistani students.
for outside countries there is no difference India or Pakistan or NEpal or Bangladesh. Its all the same. The sooner you know it the better it will be for you.
Mam, I’m currently working on my visa application. I’m taking a loan for my tuition fee and my husband is sponsoring me and we are showing only 10 lakh in his account. Is that a problem for visa approval?
If the university is good, you shouldn't worry. Its okay for your husband to sponsor.

@@ScholarStrategyTV like what should I answer to the VO if asked Why Masters Again? P.S. I am pursing my masters in Information Technology in India (final sem) right now. I want to pursue another masters in game programming from USA in fall 2023 preferably. I have got job also here and will be doing that before coming for second masters. I am worried a lot about this because I am seeing a lot of people posting rejection stories on social media for a second masters.Also someone is suggesting me not to mention my first masters in the DS-160 .I don't think that's a good idea. Any suggestions/help would be appreciated? Thanks in advanced.
@@supremedatta6237 I myself went for second F1 for my second Master's and didn't;t face any issue. Same mindset applies - you want to convince them that this MS is indeed needed (why you are going for it etc etc) and again focus on how its imp for your career goals. They shouldn't feel that second MS is your way of extending your stay. Since I had a good job previous to my second MS, they didn't feel it with me. My stamping was pretty smooth because my previous employer and the school I was heading to (NYU) were both pretty reputed.
@@supremedatta6237 I wouldn't hide any facts in my DS 160 because they have all your records and if they see that you are hiding anything, that is surely a rejection. I guess what you need to be clear on - is your second MS really needed or do you have dubious intentions there. Hope this helps! good luck
@@ScholarStrategyTV Thank you so much..My first masters is in India...I guess your first masters was in us as well.
Are you kidding? Just cuz your sibling is in the states, you'll be denied? There are so many people who went to the states even while their siblings were already working there. It should depend on your purpose and how you state it to the VO, something that makes them understand and believe you'll come back to your home country to pursue your future goals. Getting a straight rejection simply because of your sibling doesn't make sense.
