Hello everyone! Welcome to my channel! This is Dori, I am a teacher of English and today's video
is the second part of a requested video. So, in the previous video we talked about
the U.K. study visa so in this video we are going to talk about the U.S. study visa
So, well, the U.S. study visa is not granted as easily as the UK one and you may be asked some
weird questions along the way. So, let's begin!
Even if the interview is about a study visa, the visa officer needs to be convinced that you
don't intend to stay in the U.S. after the completion of your studies. So, you need to provide
very strong home ties that are going to convince him that you're going back home when you complete your studies
that you don't intend to stay there for ever. So, what are considered strong home ties?
Well, first of all, if you have a family back home and a strong relationship with it
even better if you intend to get married with a girl or a man from your hometown after the completion
of your studies, that is, you have to return back home in order to get married. If you actively participate and
contribute to the community of your hometown, if you are very clear on how you intend to use your
studies and your knowledge in order to help your own country . So, if you answer that you're going to
search for a job in the U.S. after the completion of your studies, if you answer that if you fall in love with an American
you're going to get married and stay there in the U.S., that is, if you answer that you have friends
and relatives that already live in the U.S.and they work there and you intend to stay with them
in their home and search for a job after that, then contrary to popular bellief, most probably you're not going
to get that visa. So, be ready and be prepared to provide as many and as strong home ties as you can and
pray for the best. It goes without saying that in order to be granted a U.S. visa you have to be
already accepted by an institution to study there, by a university there. Also, you have to be decently
dressed; you have to be kind and very very confident and very clear on what you say.
Ok, so be prepared for that. Also, good communication in English is always a good thing.
Ok, now, let's go and see an example dialogue that would probably get the study visa
Mind you, you can never be sure but let's just say that it has more chances to be accepted. Ok? So, here we go!
Ok, so these are just examples out of many questions you could be asked in this interview
but just keep in mind during your answers that the visa officer needs to be convinced that you are not
going to stay in the U.S. after you complete your studies. Even if you intend to do so, you have to convince
him for the opposite. So, that's it for today, I hope it helps, post your comments and questions here
or in FB, T and G+ I've added all three links down below. Thank you very much for watching,
And Good Luck with your studies!!
