You must pay the SEVIS I-901 Fee. The U.S. school will provide you with a Form I-20 to present to the consular officer when you attend your visa interview.

4 通常问题 不能在开课前30天进入美国，最早可以距开课前120天开始申请签证。 提供最近6个月银行对账单，证明足够资金支持留学。
面签通常大约2分钟，根据具体情况一般不超过10分钟。 同时收到几个大学的I20表格，如果临时改变主意，可以联系想去的大学更改SEVIS记录，不需重新交SEVIS费。 如果有未过期的美国旅游签证，可以同时保留两个有效签证，不需要取消旅游签证。 不要在面签前两天更改DS160记录。

5 提前30 天入境 Students are not permitted to enter the United States earlier than 30 days before the start date of their program. If you wish to enter earlier than 30 days before your start date, you must qualify for a visitor (B) visa. U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officials may admit you to the United States on the visitor (B) visa, but you must apply to U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) for a change of status to student (F-1or M-1) status. You may not begin your course of study until the change of status is approved, and you may encounter lengthy processing times. 

6 F1签证面签可能问到的问题 Why did you choose to study in the US instead of joining the University in your home country? Why did you choose the University and why is it the best for you? What are your test scores ( SAT, TOEFL, IELTS ), GPA, and your overall performance as a student in the past? How are you funding the entire duration of your education, including tuition, room and board, transportation, and all other expenses? After you graduate, will you return home or will you stay in the United States? Give me 3 reasons that you will come back to China? How long have you prepared your visa interview? Have you prepared the interview with the help of any agency?

7 F-1 签证拒签的原因 If your F1 visa application is denied, it is based on US immigration law, the reason and section of law you are denied under will be given to you in your paperwork.拒签理由会书面给出。 Some applications are denied because the applicant failed to provide necessary information or supporting documentation as required.一些拒签是由于当场无法提供相关文件。 If you do not sufficiently demonstrate that the strong ties to your home country will influence you to return home after your stay in the US, denied under INA section 214(b), Visa Qualifications and Immigrant Intent. 不能充分说明和祖国紧密的关系（移民倾向） Other common reasons for denial include Fraud or Misrepresentation, Unlawful Presence in the United States, Health-related grounds, Criminal-related grounds, or Security-related grounds.欺诈伪造文件，犯罪，健康及安全因素的拒签

8 入境须知 A visa allows a foreign citizen to travel to a U.S. port-of-entry (generally an airport) and request permission to enter the United States. A visa does not guarantee entry into the United States. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS), U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officials at the port-of-entry have authority to permit or deny admission to the United States. If you are allowed to enter the United States, the CBP official will provide an admission stamp or paper Form I-94, Arrival/Departure Record. Learn about procedures for students (with F or M visas) entering the United States on the CBP website under Arrival Procedures for Students or Exchange Visitors.  Learn about admissions and entry requirements, restrictions about bringing food, agricultural products, and other restricted/prohibited goods, and more by reviewing the CBP website.
