The US Embassy in India has announced that appointments for F, M, and J visa interviews are now available for booking for students with an I-20 form.
Interviews for these student visa types will begin after August 14, said the US Embassy in its tweet on the official ‘U.S. Embassy India’ Twitter page. “So if you need to arrive at school by mid-Aug, book an appointment now!” tweeted the Embassy.
