StarBoy54: Point Park University is a private institution that was founded in 1875. Park University's ranking in the 2018 edition of Best Colleges is Regional Universities Midwest, Tier 2. I think its okay but why this school ? You must really convince the VO why you really choose this school out of all the schools in the US . I could also see that majority of Program can also be done online ! But I think you must be prepared for Why this school !! 1 Like |

Good day guys, Not sure where else to put this as I tried checking if there was a dedicated thread for F2 visas but couldn't find one. I am currently in the process of trying to get my husband to join me with an F2 visa. We have tried to go over possible questions that he could be asked and while I'm fairly confident with our preparation for most questions I am not 100% on two possible questions. 1. Why he wants to join me in the US 2. What he hopes to do while he is here. As you can imagine answering these in an unsatisfactory way could easily set the tone for the interview and I would like to avoid that. The truth is I don't have any intentions of leaving the US until the end of my OPT Stem extension and we recently got married and we would very much like to be together in the same physical location. I'm just wondering the best way to convey why we don't want to be apart as we begin our married life. I know that he definitely can't work on F2 neither can he be enrolled as a full time student unless he applies for a change of status, but if we were to say he was to take online courses while here, is that reason good enough for Question 2? I would greatly appreciate if anyone that has been in this situation(or knows someone) could share their thoughts and experiences regarding F2 visa interview (preferably for husbands applying). If there is also a thread already for this, I wouldn't mind being directed there. Thanks. |

Please house someone should give me a better clarification. The duration for the MSc program on my i-20 is written 5 years. please I don't actually understand, I thought MSc program is basically 2yrs. someone should enlighten me please. Best Regards. |

alvanDgreat: That should be a mistake. Contact your school. MSc is mostly 2years. Its only phD that's 4-5yrs. |

imperiouxx: At first, you said it was impossible and 100% a flat out lie, but you contradicted yourself by suggesting a possible scenario in the end (saying probably the hospital is family owned) which could be one of many other possible scenarios. Keep your mind open. I'm not in support of whatever that poster said or against the criticism she's getting from you guys but I frown when people say things like "nobody should/would spend x amount of money to do y". Ahan, is it your money? |

Does it not make more sense if he applies for a B1/B2 visa instead, If the purpose is just to visit, Might be difficult to convince the VO that your husband qualifies for F1. landuseact: |

Just like Adedoja99 and Stella91, I was also at the embassy with my wife on the 8th of June. I think I met Stella91 on the queue asking her if she was related to someone I know (Eneh Jones Odeh). She was even complaining about her son that he doesn't like to sit down Prior to our turn, I noticed thay the VO had already turned down 3 of those before us. Anyway, Mine/ours went this way. (not exactly) However wasn't up to 3mins VO: Good morning us: good morning Vo: are you going together and who is the primary applicant. Wife: I am Vo: why are you going to the US? Wife: to study at UTS, new york. Vo: who is paying for it Wife: it's a full phd scholarship (5 years) Vo: plus stipends? Wife: yes. vo: you had already been to uts for your Master's, was that before you got married? Wife: yes Vo: any children Couple : no Vo: pass me your marriage certificate. I gave her the 2 certificates... She didn't even look at them vo: who is sponsoring your husband Wife: his father vo didn't ask for bank statement. Vo: what do you do and what does your father do? Me: i'm a christian minister and my father too Vo: your visas have been approved, make sure you hold on to your marriage certificates in case you are asked at the poE. Couple: thank you (I couldn't believe it was so quick, not even up to 3mins) Vo: enjoy your trip Note, none of the things / questions we prepared for were asked apart from the marriage certificates. Our surnames weren't even the same on our new passports even though we got them after our wedding which we had this year (she hadn't done her change of name) She didn't even check our old passports And going to New York wasn't a problem. I hope this helps. Thanks 5 Likes |

Please house, I have a cousin who applied with UHD (University of Houston-Downtown)for an MBA and given admission but after few weeks he was called back and was told they had to withdraw his admission after reviewing his transcript and found out that the transcript he submitted was a 3-year degree in Applied Information Technology from an Indian University it wasn't a 4 year program. They offered him a one-year transfer program in B.sc (Multi-Interdisciplinary studies)to make up for the his complete B.sc program. In his Ds-160 form, he's filled in the the Indian degree as the school he attended.... Please advice how does he present his case to the VO during his interview? Thanks House |
