My F1 Visa Experience
University: City University of New York
Status: Approved โ
Date: 2nd December
Time: 12 PM
Counter: 11
So, we were taken in at 12 PM. After that, we gave the biometrics and at that time, only one VO was taking interviews for all the applicantsโa curly-haired lady. It went like this:
๐นMe: Good afternoon, Officer! (with a big smile)
๐ปVO: Good afternoon! So, youโre going to the City University of New York, I see! (excitedly)
๐นMe: Yes, I am going to the City University of New York.
๐ปVO: Did you apply to any other universities?
๐นMe: Yes, I have applied to several other universities, such as...
Https://t.me/f1_exp
๐ปVO: So, why did you choose to go there?
๐นMe: As I am planning to do a Bachelor in Sociology, the core modules of this degree at Queens really caught my attention, such as...
She stopped me there and said, "I see you are going to study Sociology."
๐ปVO: Why Sociology?
๐นMe: Since I come from a third-world country, Iโve seen how issues like child marriage, dowry and the abuse of women occur on a daily basis. I want to be an advocate for women, empower them and fight against gender discrimination.
๐ปVO: I can understand. (in a very soft tone)
๐ปVO: How are you going to manage your tuition fees and living costs?
๐นMe: My father is going to pay for all four years of my tuition fees and living costs.
@f1_exp
๐ปVO: And what does he do?
๐นMe: Heโs an established businessman. He has been consistently importing high-end motorbikes for the past 25 years.
๐ปVO: Motorbikes? (excitedly) Do you know how to ride a motorbike?
๐นMe: No, I donโt. (with a soft laugh)
VO: Haha, itโs okay!
๐ปVO: What are your plans after completing your degree?
๐นMe: I plan to join a top NGO here in Bangladesh, such as Grameen or BRAC, which have played a significant role in womenโs empowerment. I want to contribute to their legacy by advocating for gender equality and working actively to end child marriage.
๐ปVO: You have a big dream, girl. I hope you can achieve it.
By that time, I was confident about getting the visa.
๐ปVO: Do you have anyone living in the USA?
๐นMe: Yes, I have my aunt from my fatherโs side.
๐ปVO: And where does she live in the USA?
๐นMe: In New York as well.
VO: Thatโs great!
๐ปVO: And youโve been to the Maldives, I see. How long did you stay there?
This was the trick question and I forgot exactly how long I stayed.
๐นMe: Probably 3-4 days.
Https://t.me/f1_exp
๐ปVO: Did you enjoy it?
๐นMe: Yes, a lot! I had a wonderful time with my family.
๐ปVO: Wish you all the best for your degree and future. I am approving your visa. And donโt forget to have fun there! ๐ญ๐
She gave me that white approval paper first. Then I said, โWonโt I get the blue leaflet?โ
๐นVO: Oh, do you want the blue leaflet? Let me see if I have one.
She went inside, searched for one, came back and said, โThis was the last one I had,โ and gave it to me. I was already in tears.
Key Takeaways:
One thing I noticed was that she wasnโt rejecting anyone for no reason. Either it was because of their DS-160 or their interview performance. If she decided not to give the visa based on the DS-160, she didnโt ask more than one or two questions. You have to be really careful with your DS-160.
I also saw a lot of people whose answers sounded memorized, which could be a reason for rejection.
Lastly, thereโs nothing above praying. Tahajjud really works like magic and so do prayers. Keep two nafl fasts with intentionโit works. Since I had no other options, I didnโt plan for any other countries. This was everything I thought about.
You have to be really, really confident. I saw people with very good profiles getting rejected just because they were nervous on the interview day. Trust the process and believe in yourself. It will all work out, InshaAllah.
She cut me off many times and didnโt let me complete my answers fully when she got what she needed, so itโs okay to get cut off.

Interview Experience:
Me: Good Morning Officer, how you doing?
VO: Smiled and said Iโm good thank you
VO: Oh, youโre going to FIT
Me: Yes officer, Iโm going to FIT for my masters in Mechanical Engineering.
VO: Are there any specific reasons why you chose this university?
Me: Yes officer, I chose FIT because of its unique location on Floridaโs Spacecoast. With proximity to the Kennedy Space centre and other aerospace industries was very appealing to me.
He nodded and said OK and I stopped there.
VO: What was your CGPA?
Me: 6.9 officer
VO: Did you applied to any other universities?
Me: Yes officer, apart from FIT, Iโd also applied to University of Alabama at Birmingham and Texas State University. I received offer letter from UAB. Unfortunately TSU didnโt accepted my application.
VO: Hmm, how are you going to fund your education?
Me: Officer, Iโm gonna fund my education with my fatherโs savings of $59k. Iโve also secured an education loan from SBI worth $71.2k.
VO: Hmm OK, Iโm going to keep your passport with me. You will get it in a week.
Me: (Was shocked af) Thank you officer. I wish you a very best day officer. I moved away from counter to exit but came back again and said Merry Christmas Officer. He smiled and gave me a thumbs up ๐
My personal experience:
Guys, there were both acceptance and rejection in Delhi today. The VO had rejected 4 people in front of me and honestly I too thought that I was gonna get rejected today. But, put a smile on your face while answering, answer with confidence and look them into eyes. Donโt give generic answers when asked about why you chose this university? Give your real reason why you selected that university and donโt talk about curriculum or faculty or research. Give trivial and real reasons. Donโt let other applicants experiences at the embassy or consulate affect you. Believe in yourself and say this one thing that Iโm not gonna come back with my passport from the interview. Make your American dream come true and best of luck yโall. Go and nail your interview!

Visa Experience
Consulate: #Mumbai
Date: 17 dec
Time: 10:10 am
Https://t.me/f1_exp
Visa Status: #Approved โ
Going for MS in Drug and regulatory affairs from LIU NYC
previous education: B pharm
(not mentioning VO because consulate and VO don't matter)
I was nervous because 12 people were rejected before me. Still approached with a smile on the face
Me: Hello! How are you?
VO: (no smile, expression) I'm good
Me: here's my document
VO took it in
Https://t.me/f1_exp
VO: when did u graduate
Me: June 2024
VO: Gpa?
Me: 7.01 on a scale of 10
VO: Which schools did you apply for
Me: NJIT, LIU and UAB (i said all the full forms and fumbled at UAB but quickly bounced back and said University of Alabama)
VO: why LIU
Me: I want to be a regulatory affairs specialist so firstly my professor is having 40 yrs of experience and it will help me establish as a regulatory affairs specialist.
VO: stop! This sounds scripted
Me: (I thought i lost it) sorry ma'am it isn't, gimme 10 seconds and explain it to you
VO: ok! but no scripts
Me: (with my hand on my chest) promise ma'am, no scripts
VO: ok go on
Me: I told VO what inspired me to become a regulatory affairs specialist and i was about to go into the reasons that made me choose LIU. VO stopped me and said place your right hand on the scanner. i placed it and VO kept my passport.
i was shaking and couldn't grab my i20 from the tray but yeah it was done.
Trust yourself and walk upright. you paid 15k for that and only you can make it happen
no officer or consulate is biased and giving unfair judgements. there's always a reason even if it's not apparent.
Best of luck to you all and see you all in the US
