VO: When did you graduate?
Me: July 2021!

Me: Thank you officer!
—————————————-

Tips :
1) Try showing the funds 1.5 times the amount listed in your i20
This will indicate the officer that funds for 2 years can be accumulated!

2) Be confident! ( one thing I observed was that, if you are confident and fluent, less questions were asked and visas were approved!

The ones who were tensed or fumbled were asked more questions before approval/rejection!

Good luck with your interview!🤟🏻
