Ans: Hi,
there is no other option available for her. Either go on study permit or get married and apply under dependent visa.

Ans: Hello Sunil,

First and foremost, thank you for getting in touch with us. I am happy to hear that your daughter completed her 12th (Medical) in 2021 and now wishes to study overseas, especially in the USA. Nevertheless, taking into account both, monetary considerations as well as alternate strategies to reach her objectives, I would recommend that she addresses this choice with a practical perspective. Although studying in the United States may be desirable, there are often huge financial costs involved, particularly for overseas students.

From an academic and financial standpoint, it may be more practical to advise your daughter to complete her undergraduate studies in India before thinking about postgraduate opportunities in the USA. Besides, it’s also imperative to address her current state of inactivity ever since she has finished her 12th grade. While she waits for her visa reapplication, I would suggest that she actively participates in fruitful ventures that can aid her in acquiring important expertise and knowledge viz., internships, online programs, or volunteer work pertaining to psychology or any other desired field. Not just that, she should also seek advise from academic consultants or professional guidance counselors as they would be able to offer her information about other educational options and assist her in making educated choices pertaining to her future. Ultimately, make her understand that obstacles viz., visa denials are normal and can teach valuable lessons, highlighting the value of tenacity and fortitude in accomplishing her objectives.

Ans: Hello Sunil,

To begin with, thank you for contacting us. I am happy to hear that your daughter completed her 12th in 2021 and now intends studying in the USA only. To answer your question first, I would like to tell you that your daughter’s desire to study in the USA is understandable, nevertheless, it is also crucial to take into account practical and monetary considerations. Given, your daughter is determined to study in the USA, I would suggest that you look into scholarships or other forms of monetary assistance to help alleviate the cost. I would like to let you know that in the USA, community colleges frequently charger lower tuition fees, and transferring to a university after two years may be more cost-effective. Moreover, your daughter might begin by strengthening her profile with pertinent activities or online psychology courses, which can in turn, boost her visa application and increase her chances of receiving scholarships.

Meanwhile, I would recommend that you motivate her to participate in activities that will help her improve her abilities and resume viz., volunteering work, internships, or part-time jobs in associated fields. This not only keeps her busy but also strengthens her application for both, visas and universities. Your daughter could increase her chances of being accepted if she reapplies for the visa in June 2024 with a more polished profile and a thoroughly thought-out application. Lastly, I would suggest that you have an open and encouraging discussion with your daughter, balancing her objectives with useful guidance on different routes to attain her objectives.
