I have got I20 from Biola University, LA, California
The University I am applying is Missouri university of Science and Technology and i have been admitted and I hold there I-20
I applied for North West Missouri State University bachelor in computer science
I have interview on 22th sep. My University is Central Michigan university
Best of luck!
Two days to go I wish u all the best lemme know how it will go though...👍
I applied to devry university and have gotten my I-20. I was supposed to start spring 2023 but unfortunately I was able to get an appointment for July 2023. But rather than deferring my admission and waiting for months, I informed my Uni I will be starting in spring from my home country. Luckily they welcomed the idea and said I could start online prior to July.
Keep checking on slot.
Or apply for emergency VISA.
you can't go to interview when your program started already. Red flag
@@caltontwase3171 you can actually, the university just have to adjust the I-20 to another start date.
If the V.O notices that you studied online. it means that you can finish the whole course while studying online.
Anyway Goodluck
@@caltontwase3171 If your program is exclusively online, then the University will not issue the you I-20 in the first place. Most American programs are a mix of online and Classroom setting. As a matter of fact, if the V.O sees that u ve taken time to start classes online even when u haven’t gotten the visa, it strengthens your visa application and shows that you are a genuine student who is actually going to the US to do what they claim, which is study.
@@chinyereonyenwe9107 exactly, I'm actually in the same boat as you right now. Wasn't able to get an earlier appointment date so Instead of deferring I opted to complete my entire first year engineering program online and hopefully physically start my sophomore year in the US this fall
Hi Ben, i have received i-20 from nsu florida and my interview is next month
Hey there! I've want to ask F1 visa related question which is "Why Graduate Certificate in Project Management?".
The answer for this question in my mind is: Presently, I am working as a Project Manager with 10 years of experience. I hold a Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, a field that directly aligns with my educational background. Opting for this particular course was a strategic decision as it offers a clear trajectory for my career advancement, enabling me to pursue upper-mid or senior-level roles. Furthermore, this course aligns perfectly with my professional goals and ambitions.
Please provide me with some guidance on how to improve my answer so that I can effectively respond to this question during my F1 visa interview.
Thank you sir for this. Av applied to MCNY
Hi , i have also applied for Mercy NY

Hi Argo! I applied for an F1 visa in Warsaw (Poland) 9th of September and got refused, because I was very nervous and couldn't answer questions confidently. Then I immedeately scheduled next appointment 13th of September and the interview went pretty well, however I got refused with a 221(g). Visa officer told me to send documents that prove my financial status to their email. I sent them all the necessary documents in 2 days and still waiting for the reply. Language courses start 24th October and I am tired of waiting. I even called them and they told that everything depends on Consular office and that even approximate date of decision cannot be told to me, it also could take several months. What should I do next? Ask the university to shift the classes till next semester? Or wait till they start?
u got reply?

Is it fine to come to a visa interview with a beard or shall I better come shaved?
But my beard is not tied to any religious beliefs, it is a part of my style, my self-image and it is well-groomed, neither long nor short.
I am gonna apply to F-1 visa in Tashkent, Uzbekistan.
So, will my beard affect the decision of the visa officer?

Hello Argo! I have a question and be grateful if you respond to it.
I've been rejected for an F1 visa twice in July and August. I guess it was because of being self-funded.. is it risky to apply for the visa again for a new university with 25% funding for the spring semester or should I wait to request for more funds for next fall??!
Is this true taking a time (like six months) after last rejection is effective in approving a visa??
