34:46 my F1 interview is on Thursday 20.07.2022...the day after tomorrow. I'm non traditional and after going through almost all of Argo videos, some more than once, I look forward to returning to this comment with celebration! Christians reading this pray for me. Amen.
How did it go?
@@Awielle-ld3thi think you know how did it go
Hello Argo visa. I got my F1 visa because of your tips. I'm a non traditional student with a gap of 6 years. This video helped me a lot, thanks to all of you and particularly Mr Ben and Ms. Lisa. You're wonderful
I have the same sitution gap of 6 years but refused twice. can u help me ?
@@muqaddsahify Hi check their videos where they're talking about non traditional student. Those may help you
@@NathdeDieu I did but somehow I couldn't clear the interview.
@@NathdeDieu how have you defended your Gap ? Do I need to change my sponsor, my brother is my sponsor?
@@muqaddsahify I did not book any argo appointment. I just watched their videos about no traditional student and F1 student in general then match the situation with my case . That's it.
Your brother being your sponsor is not the issue , the issue is how to defend yourself that you're going to study in America, make them in position to believe what you're telling them, it's all about being positive and defend your case not complaining there ( I mean to the embassy)
Great video from Argo! One can't help but accept the system even though i wud say that the entire process of F1 visa especially the interview goes against individual freewill like eat what you want to, study what you want to, where you want to (all within the socially legal confines of law). At one point in history slavery, waging war, killing were all considered legal. Maybe after a couple of decades the Visa interview won't be there. But for now it is here and you guys are doing a good job of preparing people for it.
I love how this lady smiles intermittently . Ma’am I’ll love to marry your daughter 😁
Exactly my situation. Nourishing information served at the right time!
Very informative, thank you Argo Visa!

@@okeseun8127 Program : Masters's in Computer Science University: Maharishi International University ..consular asked me below question:
1) how many university you have applied?
i told i have checked american university from washington and utah university from logan..and cost is higher then miu and miu is affordable for me.
2) why only applied in miu?
my assistant professor from prevoius university did his msc from there and i also know 2 other student who did there masters.i got enough informtaion from them about the university.
3) how you going to pay?
most of the fund coming from cpt.the cpt process is like after 8 month...(he make me stop and said he understands what is cpt)..i will pay other required funds from my savings.
4) show me your bank statement
i gave him my bank statement and also my transferwise account statement with letter from my employer.
....he became silent and started typing.....
so i took the time and started adding up to my story by saying...i am 32 and i have 3 kids(that make him interested)..they are 11, 6 and 2.....
then he approved my visa.

Now you must see some videos on how not to be deported
@@kalpanashrestha2132 Congratulations 💃💃💃
Hey! I hope you are well. I am what you can call a Non-traditional student. I am physically disabled and on top of that, I got admitted to a STEM program in the States. As the majority of universities bank on OPT for international students if they get enrolled in a STEM field and visa officers want the opposite. So, please guide me on how can I approach this interview?
This video is just the one, I was looking for.
I am 35 yrs old
Did my Masters back in 2012 (Masters of Computer Applications)
Then started working in one of the Gov. of India sponsored Bank, here in India.
Currently working as a Branch Manager and planning to go to US for further studies.
How can you help me ?
Education is to BE encouraged not questionned. School gaps are the school competence to address. Embassy should address finance and home ties questions.
Hahaha
Hello! Can someone please answer is it okay to mention why you are pursuing your masters now and then continue the answer in why this university question because the visa officers usually ask 1-2 questions and they might not get to know my side of the story.
Will the officer need to research the sponsors facebook or media? Should I provide research on them?
Hi, I am Rakhimjon who is applying working and travel Visa ( J1). I have a question? Should I mention my cousin in my DS 160? And why? For questions like Do you have any relatives in the US. And will mentioning be negative or positive? Thank for attention.
Is unpaid internship counted as experience In ds160??
I’m nontraditional. Goodness I’m so nervous.Interview is tomorrow.
And I want to go and study traditional medicine. And also study good English because my English and my children are not good
Thanks so much for this
So I have read a lot of visa interview transcripts of people and they always say the visa officer is usually typing throughout the interview
I’m curious, what are you guys typing?
Lol!
Thank you so much for briefly explaining the Non-Traditional Student. I am also a Non-traditional student with 10 10-year education gap, How can i seek your services for Italy student visa?
Hello agro can you please provide me information about Mount Alyousis collage at Pennsylvania
If it will create any difference for VO preferring college over university??
Check out this video that talks about school choice: ruclips.net/video/xcKKth-M33s/видео.html
Consistently keeping consistency is really hard but atleast setting a goal can be easier 😊

I have 10 years of study gap what about me
Should I apply or not
Hello Argo, it was really infomative video.. I have one question, I graduated in 2019 and officialy got the degree in 2020.. Then the pandemic happened.. In which I have gave up for my Masters.. Plus it was impossible to find a job at that time.. Then in 2022, i didn't get any admit (got but different country).. But in this whole period i build my profile in advance which will helo me in my Masters like certifications, professional courses, unpaid internships, conference, fellowship and freelancing... And now in 2023 i got my dream admit.. . Funding was stong... Just because i got panicked infront of the visa officer, i answered the question in a more complex way...and got my visa rejected.. 😢.. In this whole case, what are my chances of getting a visa in 2nd attempt? Becoz right now I'm familiar with all the environment.. But still..

What is the approval chance for a student going with 2 dependants (spouse and a 2year old kid). My interview is in 2 weeks. God m so nervous
Have you done the interview, how was it?
@@eniolalilian7843 we got the approval.... Alhamdulillah
Congratulations! What questions did officer ask? I'm having my interview on June 2, 3 dependents- spouse and 2 kids. Inshallah
@@saniyaschinar2372 I wasn't asked much question. The first question was About our age (mine and my husband)
He asked about our jobs and how long we were both working in the UAE. He then asked about my previous degree If I graduated but he didn't ask me to show evidence, he asked if we have any relatives in the US, what my husband will be doing while I'm studying and how we plan to manage the financial expenses. Mind you he never asks for any other documents aside from our i20 nd passports. Just be confident and pray for mercy.
@@belloshakirat1485 thanks for your reply! Wish you all the best!
Exactly what I need. I'm going too the interview in a few days with my three kids aged 11, 9 and 8. I have full funding + GTA. However, my husband is not coming with us now. What should I expect?.
Did you get it
