Hi folks,
Now that i am done with my VISA interview today i would like to share the various possible VISA
qns that could be asked in an VISA interview...
Its jus a consolidation of various VISA Qns and Ans posted in edulix.
Its a thread which puts down the contributions of various edulix'ians in 1 single thread... Thnx
to all fellow edulix mates... for making this possible.
This thread could serve as an excellent referance for future F1 VISA goers... People are also
requested to pitch in and contribute their version of answers as well for Qns posted here. [just
quote the Qn No. and post ur answers.]
Thnx a lot ppl for all
Suggestions and modifications most welcome..!!!
Kindly modify your answers as per your profile... these answers are mostly profile specific.
HERE IT STARTS.............
1. Why this university?
Ans. Sir, the first and foremost factor for selecting this university was the amount of quality
research going on there in the field of Computer Science and Softw Engg. I came to know that
my research interest matches with that of the faculty there. Hence, I want to be a part their
research group and learn more. The main goal of the research there is to develop and
investigate end-user software engineering technologies for enabling End Users to Shape
Effective Software. Besides this, the University has its own Laboratory for Empirical Software
Testing Research where students study software testing techniques by empirical means. There
is also an Usability Testing Facility which is used as a testbed for systematically evaluating the
usability and robustness of software tools and interfaces, across a range of common desktop
platforms. Above all, the courses being offered there are designed in such a way that they are
more research oriented. Specialization in Softw Engg @ Oregon State University is highly
reputed and its ranked 5 worldwide for Softw Engg specialization.
[Something like this....Any 3 points of this would do.... Make it short and simple]
2. Why do you plan to do MS? Why MS in CS ?
Ans. Having worked for 2 years in an IT company I learnt a lot about software development and
I have a good know-how of Computer Science and Software Engg, but a bit more technical
knowledge and research in the field will serve greatly when I come back here and join the
company of my choice. Higher qualifications give a better place, a better standard in today's
competitive world. I have seen that there is a dearth of persons with greater technical know-
how in this field, and whosoever has it will be benefitted highly. So I wish to complete my MS
and strengthen my knowledge and grasp the opportunity.
3. Why do you wish to study in the US ?
Ans. US grad Schools are way ahead in research in fields like Computer science and Software
Engg. when compared to other countries of the world. They also have advanced courses like
####, %%%% and ***** which is absent in Indian Universities. Moreover, they stress on
practical knowledge & not just book learning. A degree from US is globally recognized as the
academic standards are very high there. USA is the mecca of education.
4. Why Don't you study in India ?
(This is the same question as the second but you can answer it in a different way. Any one qn.
will be asked. If 3rd q is asked, stress on + points of US schools and if why not India is asked,
show the negative side of Indian Universities. In both the cases you have to show the plus
points of US Universities with compared to Indian Universities)
Ans. Masters Education in India lays more emphasis on the theory part rather than the
practical, Hence a Masters degree from India does not really help in fulfilling the career goals of
a person like me. Indian Universities do not have enough facilities to support students in their
research, whereas US Universities have sound infrastructure to support students to gain both
the theoretical as well as practical knowledge. Moreover, the courses in India are not flexible as
in US.
5. Why MS CS with Softw Engg as specialization ?
Ans. The number of end-user programmers in the world will soon number 20 times as many as
the number of professional programmers. Current research is primarily focused in helping with
the dependability of the software the end users create and customize. Towards this goal,
researchers in oregon State University are working on ways to enable systems to collaborate
with these users, in a software development paradigm that blends traditionally separate
functions -- specification, design, implementation, component integration, debugging, testing,
and maintenance -- into tightly integrated, highly interactive environments that work together
with users to continually improve dependability.

12. What was your bachelor's degree in?
Ans. I completed my Bachelors of Engineering in ^&%^&%.
13. Why did you switch fields from Electrical and Electronics to Computer Science ? Why are
you changing your stream?
Ans. During my college days, apart from my coursework in college I learnt computer languages
out of my own interest. In the process I completed courses in C, C++, JAVA, J2EE. I became a
Sun certified Java Programmer during my 3rd year. The additional interest that I had for Comp
Science also made me take up a job as a Software Engineer. I became well trained and gained
valuable industry experience during my job. But, I always had it in my mind, that once I
strengthen myself in my field, I will go on to enhance my skills in the field of Computers and
Software Engg. Hence I chose to pursue my masters in Computer Science.

Ans. My familys annual income is *** lakhs. My fathers annual income is &&& lakhs and my

back and re-join the same company after my Masters. I am going to US to upgrade my skills in
computer science and update my knowledge in the latest Software Engg practices. This would
surely enable me get better results in the competitive field here.

Awesome thread Just the thread you wanna read just before going to your VI
A potential sticky
I too wonder if telling that we are not interested in on campus part time job is right or wrong.
After all, we will be working on campus and part time which is completely legal and will be
earning a bit and support ourselves. This doesn't have any signs of being a potential
immigrant or does it?

Reg Qn No 31..... This Qn is more or less a trap.
Yes... Most of do love to work on campus and atleast make up for the living cost... If u look
into this Qn. even further... The VO is not going to reject u coz of the answer u give to this qn.
But he is definitely testing how desperate u are to get an aid..
If u answer somthing like "Definitely, Aid would be a burden off with respect to living costs...
etc etc" [He clearly looks into ur body language and tone at this point]. He is next going to look
into ur financial docs to find out if u really have enough money to support you.
So, Its always better to answer all Qns in such a way that u make a point to him that avoids
other qns from cropping up...
Hence an answer like.... "I have no plans to work while studying. I want to complete the course
as early as possible and come back"... would mean to the VO tat money has never been a
problem to u and all that u need there is time to study... finish off ur course soon and get
back......

Hi guys,
I have my VI on 16th... I applied to 11 univs and got admits in 4 and rejects from 7...
Can I be completely truthful about this or do I mention a lesser number of rejects in the VI?

Reg Qn No 31..... This Qn is more or less a trap.
Yes... Most of do love to work on campus and atleast make up for the living cost... If u look
into this Qn. even further... The VO is not going to reject u coz of the answer u give to this
qn. But he is definitely testing how desperate u are to get an aid..
If u answer somthing like "Definitely, Aid would be a burden off with respect to living costs...
etc etc" [He clearly looks into ur body language and tone at this point]. He is next going to
look into ur financial docs to find out if u really have enough money to support you.
So, Its always better to answer all Qns in such a way that u make a point to him that avoids
other qns from cropping up...
Hence an answer like.... "I have no plans to work while studying. I want to complete the
course as early as possible and come back"... would mean to the VO tat money has never
been a problem to u and all that u need there is time to study... finish off ur course soon and
get back......
yeah true...thanks for the help....excellent thread....

I have one more doubt regarding the question about plans after graduation... I'm going to
pursue MS in EE at Columbia university... I have plans to continue for a PhD but I'm not very
certain and it all depends on what happens during the next 18 months... What do I say at the
VI? Is it fine if I say I have plans to pursue a PhD, or should I stick with the usual answer that
I will look for a good job in India?
Pls reply to this and my previous doubt, its a bit urgent...

@abhikrishnan
Regarding admits and rejects, jus make sure u get ur no. of admits right. Ppl tend to tell they
applied to lesser univs (if incase they hav lotta rejects) just to avoid giving a bad image abt
their profile. Either ways VO is not going to know abt ur admits and rejects. Try to be as honest
as possible.
Reg. wht ur goin to do post MS... U can very tell him that ur planning to do a Phd. But have
answers for.... wht ur goin to do after tat ??? (Jus to prove him tat ur not a potential
immigrant)
