The Visa Officer will cover the following topics: • University and Study plans • Finances • Academics and Work • Post Graduation plans • General Questions Before we review each of these individually, let's understand the Visa Officer's mindset. The Visa Officer is trying to evaluate two things: 1. You are genuinely a student and not trying to obtain a Student Visa for fraudulent purposes, such as immigrating to the United States. 2. You intend to return to your home country after completing your studies. Let's review each topic individually, starting with the first one: University and Study plans. The Visa Officers will start their questions by typically asking you about your University and Study plans, the first category. It will include questions about the college or university you are going to and your course. Let's look at the questions in detail and how to best position your answers. Remember, at this stage, they're trying to evaluate whether you're a genuine student or not. The key to success is effectively sharing this information and answering confidently. You will face basic questions to understand which university and program you seek the Visa for. They will include questions such as: • What is the name of the college you want to go to? • What program are you applying to? The best way to answer this question is to share the name of the university and the program you're applying for the Visa. It could look like I am applying for a Master of Science in Computer Science at the University of Texas at Dallas. There may be a slight variation to the question. The Visa Officer may ask • Why do you want a visa today? The approach should be the same but with a slight twist. Share that you want to pursue your education, including the university's name and the program. It could sound like: I want to earn a Master of Science in Computer Science. I have been accepted into the University of Texas at Dallas and would like to attend the program. Remember, don't memorize your answers as the questions may vary. The key to success is to formulate the answers in your own words so you can adjust your answers to suit the questions. Next, the Visa officer may ask you about other universities you applied to and those you got accepted into. They are in the phase of evaluating whether you're a genuine student or not. Don't worry if you haven't been accepted into any other university. The questions could look like this: • Did you apply to other universities? • How many universities did you apply to?
