Hello Guys, Please urgent advise here. Can I still travel with Visa obtained in Spring for fall with a new I-20 form. I am reading forums online That I do not need to re-appear at the embassy while some folks says I have to re-appear due to five months rules. The school is ready to send me another I-20 for fall but I dont want to re-appear at the embassy again. Can someone please advice me on how to handle this? Thanks alot |

Hello House. Imperiouxx and other gurus, I want to know if I could mail my admission councilor to ask of any update on my admission process. Is it right to do so? As my application page isn't giving me enough information about my admission process and the waitt is killing, because we already in the middle of March and some schools hve been admitting international students for fall admission. Thanx |

masquellett: Most of them always write that contacting them RE: your admission status could slow down the process and delay their decisions. It's always better to wait for them to do their ish at their own time. If you're very impatient like me sha, you could just send them an email and ask the question in a general way (I didn't send any mail to ask o). Like you would like to know when they usually make decisions. Don't quote your case, just ask them when they generally decide. My advice is to wait though. I hope this helps. |

dickoflife: lol Luck plays no roles in admission decision. You were asked to submit your application materials so as to compare you with other applicants. By selection, they selected those deemed fit from the application pool after the deadline. It's just like cut off point system in Jamb in Nigeria. Try re read where I said admission is by highest competitor and that many factors are considered during screening and that schools acceptance rate shouldn't be overlooked. Therefore, if you're one of the highest competing applicants, even if that's the only school you applied, why would you be rejected? My point was how would you know if there won't be many strong applicants during the selection? So by that applying to 2 or 3 schools increases your chance of getting admission for that semester. This is logical, if one doesn't work one would. It's funny how one school comments started popping up after my initial post like my point wasn't clearly stated. An example, in Jan or so, a guy here (I can't find the link anymore) applied to 2 schools, 1 highly rated and 1 lowly rated. The lowly rated rejected him while the highly rated accepted him. Why this? The application pool for that particular semester in the lowly rated school was populated by high profile applicants and his application becomes insignificant. sureb0y: And for you, one question you need to address is why the VOs always ask "how many schools you applied to" during student visa interviews. It's not because they have no more questions. They ask to see if you're really serious about the admission. Generally speaking, one school is a unique pattern among the unserious applicants. And saying you got admitted to one school while you're in the process of applying to other is laughable. Don't forget that we've been through this application process too. If your target is fall semester for example, almost all schools start making decisions around the same time. Rolling admission is not common, probably your one school doesn't even doing rolling. Tell me what time you have to wait for the outcome of decision from the one school before you start applying to others? By then deadline date is already passed. Therefore, if you're thinking this's what would be your reply to the VO during your interview....... I'm sorry, you've entered one chance, they know too well better than you do that such claim makes no sense. I'm not discouraging you but work more on what your claims would be if you're asked. 4 Likes |

imperiouxx:Thankks for that insight broe, in a nut shell, it is always advisable to apply to more than one school, this I aaccept! But the dollar rate is killing plenty of us. God help us! |
Re: General U.s.a (student) Visa Enquiries-part 8 by imperiouxx(m): 4:58pm On Mar 16, 2016 |
olenime: I understand your point. The same money you will spend if the lone school eventually rejects you. And by then, time is no more on your side. So why not use one stone to kill few more birds? Between 2 - 4 applications is good. Either you're a genuine student or your intention is to elope as soon as your feet touch US soil, don't forget that that applicant fee and processing money is just 1/1,000,000 dollars you will still spend during your staying in US. |

UNIXLover: Can you quote where you got the rule? What I know is that entering is permitted within 1 year of obtaining your F1 visa. The new I-20 should have the same sevis number and from the same school right as it's on your visa. 1 Like |

masquellett: I would write them if I feel it's taking too long. It's either they reply you or not, nothing to lose but I'm sure they will reply you with a good reason. Have you checked their website to see how long it takes them to make decision? |
Re: General U.s.a (student) Visa Enquiries-part 8 by cutemorgan(m): 5:42pm On Mar 16, 2016 |
imperiouxx:Spot on oga imperious. I actually mailed my school around January to make an enquiry about the status of my application, the departmental website states that decisions are made immediately after the priority deadline (Dec. 15). I got a reply from the grad. coordinator telling me applications were undergoing departmental review. So i don't really think there's any harm in mailing to check the status of your application unless it's stated otherwise on the university website. |

masquellett:When I applied to UMD, I waited to be communicated on the outcome of their admission decision but they were taking too long. I called them only to find out that I had long been admitted but they failed to send me a mail apparently by oversight. They apologised and within few minutes I received the appropriate mails. So, send them a mail or better still call them on the phone. |
