Student Visa Interview Tips for Success Because the process of issuing a student visa is something that the country government takes very seriously, it is easy to become intimidated by the security precautions and blunt questions. Don't let the word "interview" scare you away, though: You have already completed the hard part of the visa process by gathering and submitting the necessary paperwork. After you've made your visa interview appointment, follow these tips to ensure that the rest of the process goes smoothly. Get to the consular's office a few minutes early. Though you may have spent weeks or months gathering the required visa documentation, your actual interview should take no longer than a few minutes. Therefore, you'll want to arrive at the consular's office with a few minutes to spare in case the interviewer is running ahead of schedule. Bring only necessary items to the interview. Since it is likely that you will be ushered through a security checkpoint or metal-detecting device upon your arrival at the consular office, make sure that you are not carrying prohibited items such as office bags or briefcases, electronic items, mobile phones, or cigarettes, all of which can trigger alerts. Be ready to be fingerprinted(especially for U.S embassy). Those receiving a student visa must submit to electronic fingerprinting(especially for U.S embassy), which is usually done at the interview site. Be familiar with the most commonly asked questions. As discussed, the visa interview can be somewhat stressful, but only if you are not prepared for it. Once your name is called, you will be directed to the interviewer's office, where he or she will ask you questions about the time you intend to spend in the country. None of these questions are meant to trick you or deter you from entering the country. Consider the following frequently asked student visa interview questions: 1. Why do you want to travel to the country? 2. Who is sponsoring you? 3. What is your annual income? 4. Do you have a credit card? 5. How many children do you have? Where are they? 6. Do you know anyone in the said country? 7. How long will you be staying in the country? 8. Do you plan to work during your time in the country? 9. How can you assure that you will return to your home country? There might be more to it but consider this the most frequently ask ones. All of these questions are intended to determine your purpose in visiting the country and the extent to which you are supported by family, your home country, or another entity. As long as you're relaxed and honest, the interview will be over in no time and you'll be well on your way to start your education. WISH YOU ALL A STRESS FREE AND SUCCESSFUL VISA INTERVIEW |

Items to Pack for a Safe, Productive Stay Abroad Studying abroad (especially in the United States) can be the most exciting time of your life, but if you're not prepared, it can also be the most frightening. Consult the following instructions for packing for your study abroad. Packing for your Trip 1. Before you begin packing, contact your airline of choice for their applicable luggage weight and security restrictions. Follow instructions carefully or you could find yourself surrendering items to security agents at the airport or paying costly fees for overweight baggage. Try to keep luggage to a minimum. Write a list of things that you will need for day-to-day comfort, and then begin marking off those items that you can buy once you arrive. Small electronic items such as alarm clocks, irons, and hairdryers can be purchased rather inexpensively in stores. Toward the end of your stay, you can offer these items to incoming foreign students. If you are already communicating with your college roommate, ask them what they are bringing. You might be able to share certain items to cut down on the number of things each of you have to bring and/or purchase. In terms of larger electronics, bring a laptop computer, digital camera, and mobile phone if you can. The more information that you store digitally, the better, since doing so will cut down on baggage and decrease the risk of losing information. Secure traveler's insurance on these expensive items before leaving home. Ask your international student advisor about electrical conversion, since a country electrical outlets may differ from other countries. You may need to purchase cord adaptors or outlet converters upon your arrival. Clothing is another item that you will want to limit. College students abroad (especially in the United States) are, in large part, very casual in their style of dress. Depending on the weather (which can vary significantly from region to region, so be sure to check before leaving home), jeans and T-shirts are standard attire. Bring several changes of undergarments and socks. Clothing stores range from quite pricey to very inexpensive, and you can easily find a store that meets your needs. Seasonal items such as gloves, scarves, and rain boots are also very reasonably priced items abroad. If possible, send some items before leaving home. This will not only cut down on the amount of luggage you'll be carrying, but it will also be a great opportunity to teach your family members and friends how to send things to you should the need or desire arise. Smart Travel is Safe Travel Before zipping up your suitcase, make a detailed list of everything you've packed (and in which suitcases) and keep that list in your personal carry-on bag. Include your passport number, credit card numbers, and emergency contacts in case your luggage is lost or delayed. Mark all bags with your contact address and both your host- and home-country phone numbers. It is wise to use an under-clothing holder for your identification, cash, and vital paperwork. These holders are thin and discreet, keeping your most important items closest to your body. Wear a wristwatch set to the appropriate time, and use either your mobile phone or a battery-operated alarm clock to regulate your schedule. Getting used to the time difference will help you to establish quick patterns and get comfortable with your new surroundings. |
