About the Interview
The process for obtaining an I-20 is very different when it comes to institutions. The chances of obtaining a visa depend on the quality of the interview given by the student to the visa officer. The student should list any advantages and disadvantages of the organization he wants to join and the organizations he does not want to join. This is an important step, a small mistake that can lead to rejection in the visa process.
Everything goes according to the way you convince the visa officer during the interview.
Key points to prepare before attending the interview:
Academics
The visa officer will be interested in your academic record.
- What is your score? (GRE, TOEFL, GPA/percentage).
- How many people regret it?
- How do I know you are not wasting your time and studying well?
- Why this university?
- How many accept & reject?

- Prepare a good CA case that easily affects your finances and its dollar equivalent. The interviewer has plenty of time, with this in mind, make sure the documents you take are accurate and do not require you to look at his belongings, which can complicate the matter
