I heard that students from Manipal University are getting more F1 visa rejections lately. Is this true? If anyone is aware, please share. It will really helpq

Ans: Mainpal (Main Campus) is one of the top-ranked Universities. But for some students, Mainpal Main Campus is not advisable. If your son is mentally strong enough & highly mature with good Emotional Intelligence / Emotional Quotient, he can go ahead with Manipal Main Campus. Else, work out Plan B & Plan C. Hope you have understood. Whatever Institute / University & Branch your Son chooses, he should keep upgrading his skills from his 1st year itself till his Campus Placement during his last year, from LinkedIn, Coursera, NPTEL, Internshala etc. and / or any other online platforms, recommended by his College Faculties, to be COMPETENT among other Students.

All The BEST for your Son’s Bright Future.

Ans: To be honest, there’s no official proof that Manipal University students are getting more F1 visa rejections than others. Visa decisions depend more on your personal profile, how well you do in the interview, your financial documents, and how clearly you show your intent to return to India after studies.
Sometimes, students from certain colleges might feel like rejections are high, but that could also be due to a few recent cases shared online — not a general rule.
So don’t stress too much about the college name. Just make sure your documents are strong, your answers are clear, and you're confident during the interview. That matters the most.
