United States Visa & Admissions FAQ
Is the US visa interview difficult?
It is strictly based on assessing your genuine intent to study, academic history, and financial capability. We provide comprehensive mock interview prep.
What is a STEM designated program?
Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math programs approved by the US government that grant a 24-month OPT extension over standard 12 months.
Is GRE/GMAT mandatory?
Many universities offer GRE waivers post-COVID, though top-tier engineering or MBA programs still require or strongly recommend it.
Can F-1 students work off-campus?
First-year students work up to 20 hours/week ON-CAMPUS. Off-campus is permitted via CPT (Curricular Practical Training) or OPT after year one.
What study gap is acceptable for a US student visa?
The US visa officer evaluates your overall academic trajectory and career logic rather than rigid gap limits, provided gaps are explained by employment.
Can I show property or land as financial proof for US visa?
No. The embassy requires liquid assets (savings account balances, fixed deposits, or sanction letters for education loans).
Is the Duolingo English Test accepted in the US?
Yes, over 1,500 US universities accept Duolingo English Test scores (typically 115-125+) as an alternative to IELTS/TOEFL.
