  Thanks for the information .Can you post more information on  F 1 visa , for the F1 visa do we have to show the money in our account to the embassy before we get our loan or can the loan for the college get approved first which we can get by the help of a co-signer and then we can show that document to the embassy for F1 visa . any more information on F1 visa will be very helpful to us .  keep up th good job.

What i know and believe is that if you tell embassy people you taking a loan and coming it significantly decreases your chances of visa( they presume u will work in USA and other things) and yes you have to show actual money in your account before you go for visa interview.
Any other confusion just ask ,
Best of luck.

Do we have to show $85,000 which is average fee for a2 year college or we also have to show living and traveling expenses  . i have also heard that many get their loan first and then go for the visa interview, because showing the whole money in bank is lots Also can it be shown in form of shares, bonds or any other savings.

great information provided, if more can be available it would be nice
thanks again moderator

do you go on a tourist visa to usa to give exam
how do you apply for nbde exam and then what are visa procedures

[dentist33]

apply for the nbde ,then get your b2 visa and come to usa and give your exam, you can tell to the visa officer that you are going to usa to give the nbde exam and show them your exam conformation letter
