Common Questions About Studying in United States
Form I-20 is the certificate of eligibility issued by your US school once you are admitted and have shown sufficient funding. You need it to pay the SEVIS fee and attend your visa interview.
It is a fee that funds the Student and Exchange Visitor Information System, paid before your visa interview. The receipt must be presented at the interview.
Requirements vary widely by institution and programme, and many have changed their testing policies in recent years. We check each shortlisted school’s current requirements individually.
F-1 students may work on campus within limits, and certain training options exist for field-related work. These are tightly regulated, so conditions must be followed exactly.
It is a significant step. Consular officers assess your academic intent, funding and ties, so preparation on how to explain your plans clearly matters a great deal.
We assess your profile, shortlist realistic institutions, support applications and documentation, prepare you for the visa interview and assist with pre-departure planning.
