Studying in US for a MS degree in IT
by M P Singh Mann on Aug 15, 2006 08:04 AM   Permalink | Hide replies

I have BE (IT) degree and would like to pursue MS in an IT related area aftera year's stint with a MNC in India.

My question is : once one gets admission to a Us University, is your VISA application rejected because you are showing bank loan as your financial support or does your F1 (student Visa) Visa chances become bleak if you dont have a sponsor (i.e. you are showing your Basnk loan as a means to support yourself.)

What are my chances of VISA refusal with bank loan as my financial support of my higher studies?

(I hv heard that a Bank loan is interpreted bu the Embassy guys as your intention to stay back in USA.)

They will never base their decision based on whether your financial support is from bank loan or other sources as far as it is sufficient based on your fee structure. People have had same acceptance rate either way.

Too much bank loan might signal the consulate that you might not be able to repay the loan, and stay back at the US. Whatever you show as financial assets, have a clear plan, so that you can explain your situation.
