All CoursesIf you are appearing for the F1 USA Visa Interview — the last hurdle to your academic dreams abroad — make a great first impression with your presence. The best way to do so is by making it to the interview in smart professional attire. Although there are no official rules on what to wear for your F1 US visa interview, we’d suggest dressing formally.
Here are some tips you can follow to create a lasting impression during the interview.
- Wear Smart Formals – Formal western wear such as a suit or a conservative pantsuit portrays your confidence but if you are not very comfortable in it, Indian formals (for women mostly) work too. However, select a neutral-coloured simple suit or salwar kameez if you want to dress traditionally.
- Wear Comfortable Clothes – Comfort is key! How comfortable you are in your clothes will impact your confidence and body language on the day of your US student visa interview. You want the interviewer to pay attention to your answers, not get distracted by the way you feel in your clothes. Hene, ensure that what you wear is comfortable and makes you feel confident.
- Wear Minimal Jewellery – If you’re wearing jewellery, go minimal. Stick to simple accessories that complement your look but don’t stand out. A simple strap watch looks great.
- Wear Light Perfumes – Stick to light cologne or perfume. You want to make a strong impression, but not leave your interviewer with a headache for the rest of the day!
Remember, what you wear matters. It enhances your personality and makes you feel confident inside out. However, besides all these external factors, it is important you wear a smile.
