10 TIPS TO GET U.S.A STUDENT VISA EASILY
Points to Remember When Applying for a Nonimmigrant Visa
(courtesy of NAFSA: Association of International Educators)
1. TIES TO YOUR HOME COUNTRY. Under U.S. law, all applicants for nonimmigrant visas, such as student visas, are viewed as intending immigrants until they can convince the consular officer that they are not. You must therefore be able to show that you have reasons for returning to your home country that are stronger than those for remaining in the United States. “Ties” to your home country are the things that bind you to your home town, homeland, or current place of residence: job, family, financial prospects that you own or will inherit, investments, etc.
If you are a prospective undergraduate, the interviewing officer may ask about your specific intentions or promise of future employment, family or other relationships, educational objectives, grades, long-range plans and career prospects in your home country. Each person’s situation is different, of course, and there is no magic explanation or single document, certificate, or letter which can guarantee visa issuance.
If you have applied for the U.S. Green Card Lottery, you may be asked if you are intending to immigrate. A simple answer would be that you applied for the lottery since it was available but not with a specific intent to immigrate. If you overstayed your authorized stay in the U.S. previously, be prepared to explain what happened clearly and concisely, with documentation if available.
2. ENGLISH. Anticipate that the interview will be conducted in English and not in your native language. One suggestion is to practice English conversation with a native speaker
3. SPEAK FOR YOURSELF. Do not bring parents or family members with you to the interview. The consular officer wants to interview you, not your family. A negative impression is created if you are not prepared to speak on your own behalf. If you are a minor applying for a high school program and need your parents there in case there are questions, for example about funding, they should wait in the waiting room.
4. KNOW THE PROGRAM AND HOW IT FITS YOUR CAREER PLANS. If you are not able to articulate the reasons you will study in a particular program in the United States, you may not succeed in convincing the consular officer that you are indeed planning to study, rather than to immigrate. You should also be able to explain how studying in the United States relates to your future professional career when you return home.
5. BE BRIEF. Because of the volume of applications received, all consular officers are under considerable time pressure to conduct a quick and efficient interview. They must make a decision, for the most part, on the impressions they form during the first minute of the interview. Consequently, what you say first and the initial impression you create are critical to your success. Keep your answers to the officer’s questions short and to the point.
6. ADDITIONAL DOCUMENTATION. It should be immediately clear to the consular officer what written documents you are presenting and what they signify. Lengthy written explanations cannot be quickly read or evaluated. Remember that you will have 2-3 minutes of interview time, if you’re lucky.
7. NOT ALL COUNTRIES ARE EQUAL. Applicants from countries suffering economic problems or from countries where many students have remained in the United States as immigrants will have more difficulty getting visas. Statistically, applicants from those countries are more likely to be intending immigrants. They are also more likely to be asked about job opportunities at home after their study in the United States.
8. EMPLOYMENT. Your main purpose in coming to the United States should be to study, not for the chance to work before or after graduation. While many students do work off-campus during their studies, such employment is incidental to their main purpose of completing their U.S. education. You must be able to clearly articulate your plan to return home at the end of your program.
If your spouse is also applying for an accompanying F-2 visa, be aware that F-2 dependents cannot, under any circumstances, be employed in the United States. If asked, be prepared to address what your spouse intends to do with his or her time while in the United States. Volunteer work and attending school part-time are permitted activities.
9. DEPENDENTS REMAINING AT HOME. If your spouse and children are remaining behind in your country, be prepared to address how they will support themselves in your absence. This can be an especially tricky area if you are the primary source of income for your family. If the consular officer gains the impression that your family will need you to remit money from the United States in order to support themselves, your student visa application will almost certainly be denied. If your family does decide to join you at a later time, it is helpful to have them apply at the same post where you applied for your visa.
10. MAINTAIN A POSITIVE ATTITUDE. Do not engage the consular officer in an argument. If you are denied a student visa, ask the officer for a list of documents he or she would suggest you bring in order to overcome the refusal, and try to get the reason you were denied in writing. before the interview, but do NOT prepare speeches! If you are coming to the United States solely to study intensive English, be prepared to explain how English will be useful for you in your home country.
1. TIES TO YOUR HOME COUNTRY. Under U.S. law, all applicants for nonimmigrant visas, such as student visas, are viewed as intending immigrants until they can convince the consular officer that they are not. You must therefore be able to show that you have reasons for returning to your home country that are stronger than those for remaining in the United States. “Ties” to your home country are the things that bind you to your home town, homeland, or current place of residence: job, family, financial prospects that you own or will inherit, investments, etc.

'None of the fresh biotech grads are employment-ready'
In the 1970s biotechnology jobs were difficult to come by, especially for women. So Kiran Mazumdar-Shaw, chairman and managing director, Biocon, changed the rules of the game and founded her own biotech venture that currently employs 3,500 people (15 per cent of whom are women) and clocks revenues in excess of Rs 1,600 crore.
In an interview with Nandita Datta she talks about biotechnology becoming the new buzzword and what it takes to build a successful career.
What are some of the career opportunities in biotechnology in India today?
Biotechnology is a very diverse field. It offers opportunities in areas of research, marketing or manufacturing. The research that's going in this field today is so varied and inter-disciplinary that students of biology, pharmacology, medicine, engineering and computational science all have interesting roles to play. In the area of manufacturing, we look for chemical and mechanical engineers or microbiologists with expertise in fermentation. Marketing, which involves selling products like enzymes, bio-pharmaceuticals, industrial and agri-biotech products, diagnostics, instrumentation, etc requires knowledge of science and an MBA degree. After all, he or she must understand the products and services being sold.
Is a basic degree in biotech sufficient for a career in this field?
A degree in biotechnology is not imperative to enter this field. Biocon, for example, hires MSc students from life sciences disciplines like biochemistry, molecular biology, microbiology, pharmacology and chemical biology. And it's not like these are for non-R&D roles -- they are very much for our research programme. But for someone who's really interested in research as a career, I would recommend doing a PhD. Apart from the much-needed specialisation, it brings an analytical bent of mind. For non-research functions, a PhD doesn't really help -- learning on the job is much more important.
Which biotech institutes does Biocon visit regularly for its hiring needs?
We go to IITs and pick students from specialised bio-sciences or biotechnology programmes -- usually you can't go wrong with an IIT. Mumbai University's Department of Chemical Technology (UDCT) is another excellent picking ground because of its outstanding quality of education. Anna University is also quite good. Many institutes today produce quality students. We've a wide choice to pick from!
