Do you want to know what questions visa officers have in mind when they face a student applying for a visa？ Here are the specific questions generally in visa officers’ minds. //Are you a genuine student , headed to the US for the purpose of studying？ Can you pay for your studies？ Are you really going to America to study and only to study, not to work？ Do you intend to leave the US when you have your degree？ // We are also interested in your family’s financial situation. If your family can afford to send you to the US to study and are doing well in China, we are likely to believe that you too will prosper after you come back. // If your family has no money and you are borrowing thousands of dollars to finance your US education, it will be more difficult to persuade us that you intend to come right back to China after finishing your studies. // There is no one thing that determines whether we grant a visa or not . We consider all the factors before coming to what we hope is a sound decision.
