What's up, guys! We are a team of people who have always dreamed of living and studying in America and feeling the excitement and vibe of California life in the coolest city in the world - Los Angeles - while freely getting to know interesting people who are open minded and don’t struggle with language barriers.
Our team has had different and unique life journeys to get us here; we’ve been through a lot and we know exactly how to help you get here, too. We created this project to help you realize your dream - to learn English and immerse yourself in the California lifestyle
To get to America, the most important thing is to obtain a visa. Here are some useful life hacks from us:
-
Study the requirements
Carefully review the visa requirements on the official website of the U.S. Embassy.
-
Study the requirements
Carefully review the visa requirements on the official website of the U.S. Embassy.
-
Clearly formulate the purpose of the trip.
Before applying for a visa, it is important to carefully define your purpose. In the case of a student visa, you need to clearly demonstrate how your education aligns with your future professional ambitions and why the United States is your preferred destination.
-
Prepare the necessary documents.
Prepare all the necessary documents in advance, such as accommodation reservations, event tickets, invitations from educational institutions, and other documents that can confirm your plans. ❗️Important❗️️ Don't forget that you should not buy plane tickets until you have obtained your visa.
-
Prepare for the questions
Think in advance about possible questions that may be asked by the visa officer. Avoid hesitancy or vague answers.
-
Be prepared to answer basic questions in English
The visa officer can switch to English at any moment and ask standard questions like: How old are you? How was your day? Where do you work? etc. Don't panic and make sure to provide clear answers. Memorize the answers to these questions in advance.
-
Sufficient financial means
Ensure that you have sufficient financial resources to cover all expenses in the USA, including accommodation, meals, transportation, and entertainment. You will need to provide bank statements, income statements, and other financial documents to demonstrate this assurance.
-
Ties to your home country
If we're talking about a non-immigrant visa, it's important to demonstrate that you have strong ties to your home country. This can include family connections, property, career prospects, and the intention to return after a temporary stay in the United States. Avoid creating the impression of intending to immigrate to the States.
-
Communicate clearly
At the interview, speak clearly and without unnecessary delays. Present your plans to the consul in a coherent manner without unnecessary details. Be honest and do not provide false information.
-
Keep calm
Relax, try to stay calm during the interview. Nervous gestures or undue stress can raise doubts. Remember that officers conduct numerous interviews daily, so appear confident. Important! Give yourself a break the day before the interview, go to the movies, read a book, meditate.
-
Appropriate dress code
The best style is smart casual, be neat and be yourself. Avoid bright colors, deep necklines, short skirts, and shorts. Flip-flops are also not welcomed 😊
-
Be punctual
Arrive for the interview early, taking into account possible queues, traffic, and the distance from your hotel to the consulate.
-
