An Indian student revealed his recent experience of getting the F-1 visa at the Mumbai Consulate, as he is planning to pursue his master's from New Jersey Institute of Technology. Ahmedabad's Hari Krishna Trivedi, in a YouTube interview, recounted how he saw every one of the 20 applicants ahead of him getting rejected without any specific reason.
Trivedi said he was surprised to see how the visa officers only gave a few seconds to the candidates and as they started their introduction, they were interrupted and were told that their visa applications were rejected. It seemed that the visa officers already knew that they would refuse the applications even before the candidates came to their windows.
