There could be nothing more exhilarating than an opportunity to continue your education at US Ivy League colleges or other reputed US colleges. However, if you are not native, the procedure could get wildly twisted. Considering the low college acceptance rates along with the rigorous visa generating procedure could be challenging for a student.

F1 visa interview for international students

The most prestigious study abroad consultants in Ahmedabad have narrated the entire F1 visa interview process a bit tricky. However, they assure that a structured and wise response to each question could help students land an instant visa.
  • The visa application process is tedious, but the interview can get simplified if you manage to maintain your composure during the interview hours.
  • The response to your questions should be crisp, short, precise, and clear.
  • It is natural to fear the interview if English happens to be your second language, and you are not quite thorough with it.
  • The F1 visa interview you attend should be addressed with all the required documents alongside relevant answers to the interview questions.
  • The questions tend to stick around the following categories:
    • The university you are choosing.

    • Your plans after graduation

Type 3: Questions that follow your academic caliber

As confirmed by one of the best overseas education consultants in Ahmedabad, the visa officers ought to question your academic capabilities during the interview. As an applicant, you will have to prove to the visa officer that you were competent enough to pass the university exams and get into a US college. Plus, these questions will also test you regarding your USA’s cultural knowledge. They will question:
  • whether you will be able to adjust
  • or do you speak fluent English
  • and why did you choose the US in general instead of other English speaking countries like Canada, Australia, or England?
The general question here can be:

Question: What are your scores, and why do you think US colleges are the best for you?

  • Can you show me your high school or college diploma?
These questions will have an answer similar to the one mentioned structured and summarized above.

Type 4: Questions regarding your financial status

It is one of the most crucial aspects of the F1 visa interview. Only those students can be granted a visa to the US who have a proper financial backup. The financial backup does not concern academic capability. You can excel in academics, but a lack of appropriate finances can hinder your dreams of visiting US universities. It is because the tuition fees in the USA are much higher compared to any other country. And as an immigrant, you will have to arrange for lodging, food, transportation, and health insurance. Therefore, the answers here lay down the foundation for your US visit. The answers here are personal and therefore hold no structured sample. The questions regarding your financial information will include:
  • Who is sponsoring your education?
  • How much does your sponsor earn monthly?
  • How do you plan on financing your entire education program?
  • What is the fee structure of your school?
  • Do you have any plans for meeting the expenses?
  • Do you have any other plans to cover your cost?
  • Can you show us your bank statements?
  • Are you being offered any scholarship from your college?
  • Do you mind showing us your tax returns?
