At the USA Education Fair organized in association with the Times of India, Michelle Wildman, vice consul, US Consulate General gave a briefing on US visa procedure. She said: “Approximately 900 people come to us for visas every day. I have between 30 seconds and two minutes to decide how serious an applicant is about studying in the US. So, all the information that can tell us about your intent and credibility to pursue higher education in the US is welcome.”
Warning students against the use of fraudulent bank documents, Wildman said that applicants would have to produce financial documents to demonstrate that their families could support them in the first year of study without the candidates having to work.
