Here is an easy guide from the desk of our experienced counsellors about the student visa requirements for some of the most sought after destinations for higher education.

Student visa for the USA 

As a student, enrolling for academic studies in the USA, you will need an F1 Visa. Here is the five-step approach to ensure your adherence to F1 Visa rules 

1. Approved I-20:- Once you have received admission in the desired institution accredited to the US Government Student and Exchange Visitor Program (SEVP), the university would enroll you on the Student and Exchange Visitor Information System (SEVIS) and send you the system generated Form I-20. This is an important document for the remaining steps.

2. Pay the I-901 SEVIS fee:-   This payment(currently $350 ) needs to be completed on the SEVP website at least three days before submitting your visa application. Online payment can be done using an international credit card. Alternatively, Western Union Quickpay can be done at any of the neighborhood Western Union outlets by referring to the coupon number generated during the I-901 application process.

3. Fill DS-160 Visa application and pay the student visa fee:- The DS-160 form can be filled online and some of the key information to be provided include – 

• Personal and family details including education and work history, passport details, etc.
•  security, background and medical information, 
• SEVIS ID and enrolling institution details.
• Photograph in the specified format and dimension

Once submitted along with the online signature, the form cannot be modified.  So check and recheck all details before hitting the submit. 

The student visa fee can be paid online using IMPS, NEFT or cash at DRUK Bank, Axis Bank, and Citibank counters. On successful payment, a Machine Readable Visa (MRV) fee receipt would be generated, which needs to be stored and printed.

4. Schedule 2 appointments with at least 1-day gap:- Using the credentials used to pay the visa fee, log in and schedule appoints with 

• Visa application center(VAC):- This enables you to visit one of the five VAC locations and have your fingerprints and photo taken. This appointment needs to be at least 1 day before the visa interview scheduled at the consulate.
• Embassy or Consulate:- Three pieces of information would be required for this are your passport number, the fee payment date and 10 digit barcode generated in the DS-160 confirmation page

5. Complete the visa interview:-  Be sure to take along these documents for the interview

• A Passport that has a validity of at least 6 months
• Signed SEVIS Form I-20
• SEVIS I-901 fee receipt
• DS-160 application confirmation page with barcode and application ID
• MRV fee payment confirmation receipt
• A printed copy of the appointment letter
• Photographs in the prescribed format
• Transcripts and degrees/diplomas from institutions attended. Work history and experience certificates
• Scores/certificates from standardized tests like GRE, GMAT, TOEFL, SAT
•  Financial documents to show that there are enough funds to cover all expenses for the first year study 

Apart from these, you would also need documents showing strong financial, social and family ties that compel you to return to your home country after your program or study period. Organization of the documentation in advance and adherence to these F1 visa rules will make the process of visa approval quick and positive.

Student Visa Canada

Students from India as well as other countries will need a Study Permit if their ourse is more than 6 months in duration.  We have split the whole process into a 5-step process 

1. Admission to a Designated Learning Institute (DLI):- A standardized letter of acceptance from a DLI viz. an institution approved by the provincial or territorial government should be obtained preferably 4-6 months before course commencement.

2. The visa application process:– The application for a study permit can be processed either online or through a paper application. You can also also  expedite the processing by  using the optional Student Direct Scheme, by paying the applicable fee and submitting the required documents. The following are typical documents to be submitted along with the filled application form 

• Letter of acceptance from a DLI. For DLIs in Quebec, an additional acceptance certificate called Quebec Acceptance Certificate(CAQ) should be obtained before applying for a study permit 
• Proof of adequate funds available to pay the fees and manage expenses
• Fee payment receipt
• Transcripts, diplomas, degrees from schools attended In the past 
• Immigration medical examination(IME) certificate from empanelled doctors
• Passport  valid at least for six months
• Passport size photographs in prescribed form and size
• State of Purpose in the prescribed form – This is an essay explaining the purpose of your trip to Canada and the reason for choosing the DLI that you are joining.
• Scores from standardized tests and English proficiency tests like TOEFL and IELTS 

3. Provide biometrics at the Visa Application Center (VAC):- Schedule an appointment and complete submission of biometrics and other documents if any. A receipt would be provided after the collection process.

4. Submit passport upon study permit approval: Once a positive decision is taken on the application, a notification would be sent along with a passport request letter. The passport needs to be submitted along with this letter at the VAC to complete the visa stamping process.

Student Visa UK

Students planning to join academic programs in the UK need to apply for a Tier 4 (General) student visa.  Follow these steps to get your student visa

1. Obtain CAS from a licensed Tier 4 sponsor:- Along with an unconditional offer for a place in the course,  your educational service provider needs to provide a reference number called a confirmation of acceptance for studies (CAS). The institution needs to be a licensed Tier 4 sponsor and the CAS number needs to be provided in the visa application. For specific masters or higher programs in identified technology areas, an additional certificate needs to be obtained under the Academic Technology Approval Scheme (ATAS).

2. Fill the visa application form, pay the fee:- The application needs to be completed and fees paid online, followed by submission of biometrics and required documentation. Documents required for a student visa are 

• Passport valid for at least 6 months and with at least one blank page
• CAS and offer letter from licensed Tier 4 sponsor
• Financial documentation to prove the adequacy of funds to pay for the course and support  living expenses during the program
• Fee receipt
• Tuberculosis test results
• Consent from the legal guardian if the applicant’s  age is under 18

3. Schedule an appointment and submit biometrics, photographs at VAC:-  Visit the designated VAC to get biometrics and photographs taken

4. Collect passport and biometric residence permit (BRP):- After a successful decision on the application, the passport with a stamped visa would be provided. BRP needs to be collected after arrival in the UK either at the named post office branch or from the sponsor (based on what was specificallyopted for during the application) within 10 days of arrival in the UK. 

Countries like Singapore, Germany, Australia, France, Netherlands, and many others have student visa requirements that are very specific to them.

Well, you don’t have to worry about that.

You’re already on your way to success because you’re here…reading this post.

At AlKhuld Overseas, we help thousands of international students get onto further education programmed, so we’re the perfect people to come to for advice.

If you want to have a fun, educational and stress-free experience studying abroad, follow these 6 simple tips.

1. Research your new home

So you’ve chosen where you want to study. You might even have a place on your course already.

Whichever stage you’re at, it’s a good idea to do some research on the country you’ll be moving to. And when you’ve done that, dig deeper and research the city you’ll be living in.

You’ll want to know more about the culture, people and language so you can prepare for all the differences between your world and theirs.

Make your research fun. You don’t have to read boring guides or snoozefest travel books. Why not watch a documentary or a movie that’s based in that country? You could even try listening to a podcast so you can practice your English skills.

The more you know now, the easier it’ll be to feel at home in your new city.

2. Get organised

Travelling is stressful when you’re going on holiday for a week, so imagine how hard it is when you’re moving to another country semi-permanently!

The trick to getting through it painlessly is to get organised:

• Make sure you have a valid passport with an expiry date that’s more than 6 months away.
• If you need a student visa, be sure to check the country’s requirements and apply for it way in advance.
• Book your flight tickets early so you can save a bit of money.
• Start looking for travel insurance quotes so you can find the most cost-effective option.
• Check your baggage limit before you start packing to avoid paying crazy fees at the airport.

Getting organised will make The Big Move much smoother. And instead of worrying about formalities, you can spend your time daydreaming about the people you’ll meet and the places you’ll go.

3. Work out your housing options

Look into your housing options as soon as you can. The best accommodation tends to go quickly, and you don’t want to end up in a place you’re unhappy with.

You should consider living with other university students so you can make the most of student life and meet lots of new friends. It’s all part of the experience.

4. Make friends before you move

We’re not living in the 70s anymore.

Lucky for you, the existence of Facebook, LinkedIn and other social media platforms means you can make friends with your classmates before you even leave home.

Do a quick search for people who are already studying at your university or school. Ask them for tips and try to get answers to all your burning questions.

A bit of friendly social media stalking will give you a good idea of what student life will be like.

Another idea is to contact your university or school to see if they have a buddy system. Many do, and the system will pair you up with a student who’s been assigned take care of you when you arrive.

5. Spend time with your family & friends

Now for the sad part (but you knew this was coming).

Chances are, you won’t see your friends and family for a while. Try to prepare for that by spending as much time as you can with them before you leave.

Cherish those small, fleeting moments that you usually take for granted. Hang out with your friends a little more than you usually would. And hug your parents more than you ever have.

Before you leave, set up a Skype or WhatsApp account for the people you want to talk to regularly.

With a little help from technology, it’ll feel like they’re with you the entire time.

6. But most of all…

Get excited!

Whether you’re going to study at one of the top universities in the UK, or you’re venturing out to Ireland, the USA, Canada, New Zealand or Australia, you have so much to be excited about.

Going to study abroad marks the start of a new chapter filled with fun, friendship and fantastic job opportunities.

So once you’ve done all the dull paperwork and packing, get ready for the adventure of your life.

If you’re ready to start your academic journey abroad, contact our admissions office so we can find the perfect university or language school for you.

While IELTS may not hold significance in every person’s life, an individual seeking to move to another country has most definitely heard about the test. Whether your goal is to study abroad or to immigrate and settle in a new country, passing the IELTS exam is a milestone that one must achieve. Luckily, for some, this task is extremely easy to accomplish. However, for a majority of individuals, it is a nerve-racking ordeal.

So, how can you make this process faster and easier? Many people register for the IELTS test thinking it will be a true reflection of their English proficiency levels, when in fact, nothing could be farther from the truth. All you require to ace this test is a thorough understanding of the format and the strategies that will help you identify the right answer. Nevertheless, attempting to complete this task on your own can easily backfire, especially if your score requirement is high or if you do not have ample time to give to your preparation. This is where the role of a trainer comes in; but wait, not just ANY trainer, a certified British Council instructor who has in-depth knowledge of how the examiners assess each test paper.

Luckily, ABN Overseas Education provides ALL services related to your study abroad journey under one roof. All you have to do is trust the experts and soon you will find yourself accomplishing your educational and professional goals in the country of your dreams.
