Yes, IELTS or TOEFL is usually required for admission to U.S. universities. Most institutions ask for an IELTS score of 6.0–7.0 depending on the program. Some may waive it if you’ve studied in English previously. Proof of English is also important for visa approval.
After your I-20 is issued and the DS-160 is submitted, F1 visa appointments can be scheduled. Visa decisions are often made on the interview day. On average, the total process takes 2 to 6 weeks, but early booking is advised. Delays may occur during peak seasons.
In the USA, you do not need to pay full tuition before the visa. You only need the I-20 form, which requires proof of funding, not payment. Some students pay a small deposit to secure admission. Full payment is usually made after visa approval or upon arrival.
Most U.S. universities have a non-refundable application fee, but tuition deposits (if paid) may be partially refundable. Each university has its own refund policy. It’s important to check refund terms before making any payment. Usually, clear documentation is needed to request a refund.
Visa approval depends on financial proof, academic background, and clear study intent. Well-prepared students with strong documentation and genuine plans have a 65–75% approval rate for F1 visas. A confident visa interview also plays a key role. Proper guidance improves your chances.
The USA mainly offers three intakes:
Fall (September) – Major intake with most courses
Spring (January) – For selected programs
Summer (May) – Limited courses available
Fall is the most preferred by international students.
International students on an F1 visa can work up to 20 hours/week on-campus during studies. Off-campus work is allowed only under CPT/OPT programs after completing some study period. Post-study work (OPT) offers up to 3 years for STEM graduates.
Yes, U.S. universities accept academic gaps if you provide valid reasons. Work experience, language courses, or personal situations are generally accepted for gaps up to 5 years. A well-explained SOP and supporting documents help justify the gap.
Yes, U.S. universities may accept backlogs depending on the total number and academic performance. Generally, up to 5–8 backlogs are acceptable for mid-range universities. Higher-ranked institutions may be stricter. A strong profile and explanation improve your chances.
Yes, it’s mandatory to show financial proof covering at least one year of tuition and living expenses (around $25,000–$50,000). Bank statements, affidavit of support, and property documents are commonly required. These are checked during visa processing and I-20 issuance.
Tuition fees vary by university and course. On average, public universities cost $10,000–$20,000/year, while private ones may go up to $30,000–$50,000/year. Scholarships can reduce costs significantly. STEM and business programs are typically more expensive.Master’s programs typically cost between AUD 22,000 – 50,000 per year
Always check the exact fees on the university’s official website before applying.
Yes, students can choose between on-campus housing or off-campus apartments. Universities offer dorms with meal plans, and many cities have rental options nearby. While it’s available, early booking is recommended due to high demand, especially near large universities.
The USA offers the Optional Practical Training (OPT) program, allowing international graduates to work for up to 12 months after their degree. STEM graduates can extend OPT by an additional 24 months (total 3 years). This helps gain valuable work experience in their field.
Getting a Green Card (PR) in the USA usually requires employer sponsorship or family ties. International students often apply for PR through work visas (like H-1B) after graduation. The process can be lengthy and competitive but leads to permanent residence and citizenship eligibility.
