The Office of International Students and Scholars hosted a town hall webinar to discuss key considerations for international students and scholars planning to renew their visas over the summer. Along with the OISS team, we were joined by Attorney Travis Feuerbacher from ZF Visa & Immigration. We walked through recent updates to visa processing, including expanded screening practices and evolving consular expectations. Topics included how to prepare a strong DS-160 application, common pitfalls and how to answer sensitive questions, and what to expect during visa interviews.
