If you have identified an American tutor, you need to print out the resume of the future tutor. At the same time, the letter of support from the tutor and the "magnetic" letter from the teacher can increase the persuasiveness.

1, previous study and work experience

In this regard, the visa officer will ask the name of the school, major, company where he worked, and some relevant details. For this kind of question, the applicant only needs to answer truthfully, and take the initiative to show relevant documents to prove his remarks in time, such as graduation certificate, report card, resignation letter, previous business card and so on. Reasons for choosing the United States, target schools and majors;

Applicants should be alert to this part of the problem. Although some applicants have plans to work in the United States for several years or emigrate after graduation, this is what we should focus on avoiding.

2. Reasons for choosing the United States, target schools and majors.

You can emphasize the characteristics of your school major. When you are a visa officer, you will ask how many schools the applicant has applied for, and what are they? Generally, he will list 6 and 7 in the same grade. If there are too many schools or scores are too high, it may give visa officers a reason to apply for studying in the United States, thus doubting our motivation to study abroad.

3. Understanding of the major.

In view of such problems, we suggest that applicants have a preliminary understanding of the geographical location of the school. And understand the curriculum design, graduation process, major or tutor's recent research topics.

4. The employment prospect of your major.

Regardless of whether it is an unpopular major or a popular major, applicants should try their best to show their employment confidence to visa officers. What needs to be emphasized in particular is the development space and potential employment direction of this major in China. You can list the names of large companies, government departments or schools that need this professional talent.
