Except the 30 day rule don't apply at poe.....no amount of convincing won't stop them from sending you back....they would tell you if you came on the 13th of next month you will have 30 days to sort yourself out which is more than enough

Well nah so i see am too

Please do you need to print the instruction page after ur appointment confirmation and do u need to give it to d VO too.

Then the i-20 form has a page 2 which is for reentry do I give it to d vo too or its just d first page alone?

You print only the confirmation page of appointment but that page one is okay where you have your your names and details of your appointment with the bar code of ds160 and appointment

but he told me that not TOEFL, SAT, GRE, he asked me if I wrote RA, TA and i don't understand the kind of that exam I never heard it before pls

Undergraduate dont get RA or TA, how could would VO ask you if you write RA or TA.. I think the VO just dont want to give you visa and he might be in a sad mood then..

Some VO can be funny at times with their funny questions but they just wanted to know what you are doing and if you are serious and you intention and if truly you do the admission processing yourself..

Anyway never give up and re fire back but defer till spring and write a test either SAT or Ielts or Toefl but SAT is cheaper compare to toefl and ielts but in SAT you will solve mathematics

hello house grin smiley. New to this thread. I have an msc admission from Uni of sunderland but I dont want to go because Uni of Sunderland is a supposed ''low ranked'' university. breezing through posts here, i saw schools like Eastern tennessee uni, FIU etc. I am looking to defer my admission and start to apply for admission for next year to US.
So my question is, Does ranking really count in the US, cuz in the UK thread they made it seem a really big deal

2) I have a US visa, and spent just 5 mins with the guy at the counter and was giving.actually for my sisters grad in columbia. Now i want to start msc admission, will i be denied a visa if i apply to a school that doesnt require TOEFL and SAT? Im working from mon-fri, and if i am to prepare, I HAVE TO QUIT MY JOB, because my dept is a very busy one. Please advice.

Hello. I think you got denied basically because you answered NO when asked Do you know someone in the US. when i applied for a visitors visa,i was asked that question. i answered, the asked me for the city and even the address. america doesnt joke with immigration.i was also asked at JFK the same question. because basically your good to go with your scholarship and the rest.

Hello House, Visa delay @ the Us Embassy today, 6:30am
Transcript as follows

VO -good morning
Me -a very good morning sir
Vo -what are you going to the US for?
Me -to pursue a masters degree in public administration
Vo -were in the U.S. are you going
Me -Tennessee State
Vo -which university
Me -East Tennessee State University
Vo -How did you find out this school
Me -through google, us news streamlining my search with my intended course of study
Vo -who will be paying for your studies
Me -i have a scholarship but my mum will be paying the rest of the fees
Vo -(looking @ my i-20) How much is the scholarship for
Me -11,400USD
Vo -What does your mum do
Me -told him
Vo -how much does she make in a month?
Me -told him
Vo -do you know anybody in the US?
Me -No

The guy just types for over a min on his computer, the long wait almost killed me, looks at me and gives me back the documents and says, i'm sorry but you do not qualify for a visa at this time.

Didn't ask for any document though.

Called the embassy when i got to work to know the actual reason for the denial and they asked me to call back tomorrow (might as well know what i said wrong)

My question now is, does the fact that previous applied for a B1 visa (denied) last year affect my chances of getting a student visa this year?
Re: General U.s.a (student) Visa Enquiries-part 7 by Mekurexx: 10:33pm On Jul 02, 2015
also can you share how you applied for your Msc in ETU or other schools. i actually have admission to UK but i want US cuz family is there etc thanks

You will not be deny for applying to school that don't require standardised test but to be on a saver side its better&good if you write at least one of the standardised test whc will boost ur chance of getting ur visa.

olandex, I also visited three times cry cry I was the one telling my folks that I should defer till fall 2016, 'cos I knew my PROBLEM, GA,TA, and RA are not exams but positions given to students(serious ones) who show intent for such, I think u were a victim of misinformation from quarters that u shouldn't have visited at the first place, Bros packaging and conviction are so very important if u ever want to enter the united states, someone told me here that if I get my visa using my cousin as my sponsor he would duff his hat for me, I knew that was my problem and I worked towards it, go and write atleast two standardised tests, know more about your field of study, ur department, ur school and the town in which it situated, contact ur department for professors willing to take u as his/her research assistant....bros GOD would definitely see u through no short cut t greatness cos it doesnt last....peace
What influence does a professor taking u as his research assistant have on ur visa application. Please teach me what I don't know cos I see I ve a lot to learn. Thanks

My brother, though your scores are quite low as you have said, you still do not have to go to the consulate without it. It's better than saying a NO if you are asked for it. Except you have intentions of writing another.

That's normal, f1 visas are valid for 2yrs. Ur 2yr visa is used only for entering the US. While in US, U are covered by ur status (f1 status) which is valid for the whole period of ur course only if you do not breach ur status. U can only renew ur visa outside the US.

Boss, I'm not certain. That's why I used "think" instead of "know." But, I believe the gurus here have better insight on this matter than me.
