United States: common questions
It is the decisive stage. The officer is assessing whether you are a genuine student, whether you can fund the course, and whether you intend to return home afterwards. Preparation matters enormously — we run mock interviews and review your answers before you attend.
It depends on the programme. Many US master's courses have dropped the requirement, but competitive and funded programmes often still expect it. We check the requirement for each university on your shortlist before you spend money on a test.
Yes — assistantships and tuition waivers are genuinely available, particularly for research-based and STEM programmes. They are competitive and have early deadlines, so we identify realistic targets and help you apply on time.
