Top 5 Tips to remember when applying for a student visa

Choose the Right Course

Studying overseas is not an easy task for many students as it involves a high cost for getting admission to foreign universities. We know many folks do their research in advance about the course and colleges. However, there are many students who don’t have that privilege to research in advance about courses and colleges.

The internet is full of stories of how students have cheated by education consultants by offering the wrong courses or colleges just to promote their affiliate colleges. It’s always advisable for every student to check the course and colleges in advance so that you won’t face any problem in the future.

We have seen many international students who had a hard time after completing their course as they were not eligible for a post-study work permit or applying for residency. The reason behind not getting a post-study work permit was a failure to check the course and colleges whether that college is eligible for a post-study work permit or not.

We urge every student to check the course and its prospects in your host country if you’re planning to settle in your host country. By proper research about your course and college, you can save thousands of dollars.

Ties to Your Home Country

You must be able to convince the visa counselor that you have reasons for returning to your home country post completing your study abroad. The student visa is a temporary visa, which means that your intentions to stay in your host country is temporary.

As a student, you’re expected to return to your home country after completing your studies from overseas. You do not tend to remain in the country or gain residency.

If at any point in time visa counselor sensed that your main purpose is to support your family by sending money back to your home country during your student visa then your application will certainly be rejected, so be cautious while answering counselor questions during your visa interview.

It’s a good idea to show your strong family ties, property, and financial prospect back in your home country.

Job Offer

As an international student, your main purpose in coming to your host country is only to study, rather than working part-time or full-time. However, some countries offer work opportunities during studies or post completing courses/graduation.

Whether you have an intention to work or not, you must be able to clearly explain that after completing your studies you will be back in your home country.

Interview Preparation

Every country has its own guidelines for international students which involve the interview process before issuing a visa. The interview will generally be conducted in English and not in your native language. You must practice for your visa interview well in advance so that you can have interactive communication with your visa counselor.

You must be able to tell the visa counselor about your study plan and your ties to your home country. It’s advisable to reasearch well about your course and how your course will help you to grow in your career.

Supporting Documentation

You must be able to collect and submit all of your supporting documents to get your student visa approval. Every country has its own documents required for processing visa applications, so it’s advisable to check with the consulate’s website what all supporting documents do they require to process the student visa.

These supporting documents included and not limited to: Offer letters, Scholarships, educational transcripts, or any other letter issued by your school or college. However, apart from these documents, you must show your bank account details to prove your financial ability to stay in your host country.
