I am from Fujian, and my application for an American study visa in Shanghai was rejected. I feel suspicious of immigration tendency.

If the household registration is in Fujian, it is not good. As we all know, Fujian is the largest sensitive area in China. It is because there are too many people who have been abroad before and never come back, so they are listed as sensitive areas by the embassy, and the audit of the embassy will be more strict.

What about your other qualifications, such as your English ability? This is more important. The visa officer will doubt whether you have the ability to study there. There is also whether the purpose of your study in the United States is true, because many people obviously apply for a study visa, but they work there.
