    @Ruru Just 1. Tell me about your program 2. Tell about the other schools you applied to 3. Why did you choose this University? 4. Do have any relatives in the US and where they live 5. When did you finish your undergrad and what you've been doing since 6. How much does your sponsor earn? 7. Why did you choose this program? 8. Where do you work currently and what do you?

    Thank you. They just kept sending information about things I might not have known about the school (which I really didn't know). Things like different resources available to graduate students, resources available to international students, career opportunities etc. They even had a virtual open house which included a campus tour and social hour for admitted students. It was really nice and I felt like they cared. Funny how I know those were just automated emails but it was obvious that they were trying their best to sell themselves to me as "the place to be".

    Hi! No problem. I basically said that the school I went with was the only school that seemed to care whether or not I attended. When this response got the consular’s attention, I went further to explain that they tried to sell themselves to me and basically show why they’re a good choice for me. They kept sending emails with information about resources available to me as a student, etc. On the other hand, the other schools just sent my acceptance letter and I never heard from them again.

    Hi! Love your videos, very informative. Quick question- Since you live off-campus was your apartment already secured prior to the interview? Does it tend to hold weight in their decision making? I’m hesitant to prematurely pay for housing prior to obtaining the visa, however… I don’t want to jeopardize my chances (if it does carry weight). What are your thoughts on this?

  • @AmaraOsuji

    @AmaraOsuji

    Жыл бұрын

    Hi. No my apartment wasn’t secured before the interview. I don’t think this is a big factor in the outcome of the interview. If they ask questions in that line, they just want a general response of whether or not you’ll be on campus or off campus. Nobody expects you to already have paid for a place before getting your visa approved.

I’d suggest trying to login sometime during the night (past midnight). If you’re not able to, try resetting your password again. If still no luck, then call the consulate’s call centre. I found +23412278955 as their phone number online. They should be able to help you. If this happens to be the wrong number, I’m sure they’ll put you in touch with the right people who can help you.

    If you prepare adequately for your visa interview and make sure you fill your application form correctly, it won’t be hard. People run into troubles when they start lying and/or trying to cut corners. Do it yourself so you’re sure what information is filled in because that will remain in your records forever. For the second question, as a student you’re only permitted to work 20 hours a week during the semester and it has to be on campus so I guess that can be quite limiting.

    I believe there is a greater chance of visa approval. I don't believe it is easy anywhere but from what I hear from people that did it in Nigeria, they tend to grill you a lot harder, but at the same time people tend to be a lot nervous. I'm Nigerian, completed my undergraduate in north Cyprus and immediately visited the uk for holiday, I decided to apply for my f1 visa there to the USA and thank God it was a success. It was a smooth experience after series of prepping hard and being confident it played out well. My experience was different from what I saw people go through in Nigeria

    2 жыл бұрын

    1 - Make sure the bank statement you present is original/real. 2 - If you're not your primary sponsor, be prepared to convince the visa officer of the relationship between you and the sponsor if they're not your parent/immediate family member. 3 - Know what your sponsor does for work/their source of income. In general, the big challenge for self funded students is proving the legitimacy of your funding source so do all you can to make sure there are no doubts in the mind of the visa officer concerning this. Good luck.

Going by how things have been in the past, I don’t think this problem is ending anytime soon. Your best bet is to join groups where people post interview dates once they become available.

I had my f1 interview a week ago while visiting London from North Cyprus(i'm nigerian)and i was asked similar questions for my masters program in business analytics; how many schools did you apply to? How many times have you been to the US? Why did you choose a master's in business analytics at this university? I explained that i was attracted to it because it is a flex program and that got her interested in what i had to say, i saw her (the visa officer's) face intrigued so i kept going. When i was done she asked "okay so who will sponsor you for this program?" Then and there i knew i got it😂
