United States – International students have to comply with mounting requirements before they can begin their study overseas. Among the most important requirements to study in the US is to get a student visa. While it may be very time-consuming, international students can rely on their destination university to assist them in fulfilling these requirements.
Shorelight, for one, has top advisors who can assist and make the process convenient for its students. According to their advisers, applying for the visa two months before the start of the academic program gives a high chance for visa success. This involves getting the I-20 forms, required documents and contacting the enrollment services team in the region. Once students get the I-20 forms, booking for the visa interview must be done right away as appointment dates fill up fast. Aside from being ahead of schedule, international students can also book flights which may be cheaper than those bought near the travel date.
Shorelight advisors also assist international students in preparing for their visa interviews. Practice makes perfect, they say. Students are also encouraged to schedule their visa interview ahead of time as they may face inconvenience booking for slots.
Early tuition and program fee payments can also increase the student’s success in receiving visa approval as it can show their capacity to pay and enroll.
Shorelight has been helping and guiding international students since 2013. They are committed to put all students first and anticipate their needs and find solutions for them. For more information about the services of Shorelight, check here.
