    Hello Amara, does the question about working to support yourself on campus and the response apply to students with full funding and GAships?

    • @AmaraOsuji
      @AmaraOsuji  7 місяців тому +5

      Great question. No it does not. If you already have funding then you can say that. This point is for people who plan to go look for on campus employment when they arrive and this is their entire financial plan.

      1. Why are you going to the US?
      2. Do you have relatives in the US ?
      3. Have you been to the US before?

      It didn’t take too long for me to get an appointment but that was a couple of years ago, I know things have changed now. Unfortunately you need details from your I20 to start filling the DS160 so you’ll need to get that first.

      Say it exactly as it is. ‘My boyfriend and I will be covering my cost of attendance. I’m an XYZ at ABC, my boyfriend is an XYZ at ABC and we have a combined income of ABC’
      As for having anyone in the US, do you have anyone there? If you do, say it. If not, say that too. That’s not a hard question.

    • @AmaraOsuji
      @AmaraOsuji  7 місяців тому +4

      Say it exactly as it is. If you’re both splitting it 50:50, say that. If one person is covering more, say that too. So assuming your uncle is covering 60%, your response would be something like ‘my uncle is my main sponsor and he’ll be covering 60% of my cost of attendance. The other 40% will be covered by me’. Then go ahead and give more details about you and your uncle’s financial situations.

      You don’t need to pay any cash to anyone if your visa is approved. You actually don’t need any cash in the embassy proper. However, you will need cash if you plan to store your phone/personal belongings outside the embassy or if you need to print something which you forgot.

      I don't think it's necessary because the visa officer can see on your I20 that you are fully funded and they know that must be a reason for deciding to go to that school.

So, there is really no need mentioning that, since he/she will be impressed and will know it's one of the major reasons you decided to attend that university.
