The US Embassy in India has officially announced that student visa (F-1) appointments for the Fall 2025 intake will begin opening from May 20, 2025. This announcement comes as a welcome move for thousands of Indian students planning to begin their studies in the United States later this year. The appointments will be released gradually across various consulates in India, including those in New Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai, Hyderabad, and Kolkata, and will be offered in phases over the summer months.
