The U.S. Department of State has announced that overseas posts will resume scheduling appointments for student and exchange visitor visas at U.S. embassies and consulates. If you are abroad at this time and need to apply for a student or exchange visitor visa, please do so as quickly as possible to avoid further delays.
Please schedule your visa appointment at the nearest U.S. embassy or consulate and review the current Visa Appointment Wait Times to plan accordingly. Visit our webpage, Applying for a Visa, for detailed information on how to apply and helpful tips for completing your DS-160 visa application. Canadian and Bermudian citizens are exempt from applying for a student visa.
We will continue to monitor the situation and will reach out to you as new information becomes available.
As always, we are here to address any questions you may have about your visa application. Please email us at [email protected].
