Normally,by professional ethics the VO shouldn't divulge the reason for denial.However,some nice VO go out of the way to reveal.

With all due respect to both schools, Northeastern is on a level higher than the University of Arkansas. In fact, Northeastern has one of the best co-op programs in the entire US. If not for the numerous elite schools in Massachusetts dwarfing its glory, Northeastern is miles better than the best schools in a lot of US states.

My Observation. 1. Your answer to "why Northeastern" is weak: Every US school has some form of experential programs (ever heard of capstone?) and internship opportunities. You should do more research and provide more unique reasons about Northeastern you cannot find elsewhere. Did you write your essays (aka SOP) yourself? These answers can be found there assuming you wrote a stellar essay. 2. Your answer to "Northeastern vs Arkansas" is weak: This question is very similar to "Why Northeastern?" In fact, the VO was trying to give you another chance to rescue yourself after the weak answer you gave previously. Mention unique qualities of the school eg their co-op, maybe an ongoing research or the opportunity to work with a superstar professor in your field. Search for those UNIQUE reasons. 3. Your answer to "Why Liberal Arts" was the final nail to the coffin: You're paying thousands of $$ to go and learn writing? Come on! It showed you didn't prepare much for the interview. Don't feel bad. Many people don't achieve success at one attempt. Your answers show you didn't prepare well for the interview. Now, you have to go back and prepare harder + do lots of mock interviews. 3 Likes |

There is no issue with that since your school has given you extension letter.
If you get your visa and decides to defer, your visa will still be valid for the duration it was given. You don't have to reapply again. All you need is a new i20 for the term you deferred to. happy weekend bruv. How are you doing. I asked a very popular VO on quora about that extension letter stuff and she said I should offer the letter "directly and courteously as quickly as possible".

An immigrant petition might be a red flag on its own. But if other application materials demonstrate good enough home ties, I wouldn't stress about it. You can have a petition filed on your behalf without you even knowing-it's not like something that requires your signature. If the beneficiary doesn't know genuinely, I think its a valid scenario. That being said, I wouldn't put a pause on my career because of some petition that can take years even up to a decade. I would build a strong profile and go ahead @kodeya |
