Steady Stream

- MANU KAUSHIK

THE PEAK SEASON for US F-1 student visa applications related to fall admissions is generally between May and August. On Friday, it was business as usual at the US Embassy in New Delhi, with a steady stream of students arriving for their visa interviews.

The embassy's operations were in contrast with an internal directive issued earlier this week by US Secretary of State Marco Rubio, temporarily suspending the processing of new student visas worldwide. According to an internal cable, all US embassies and consulates were instructed to pause new F-1 visa appointments until the Department of State issues updated guidelines for expanded social media vetting of student visa applicants.
