AtomicMind CEO Leelila Strogov provides insight on the visa process for students in the United States.
“If you are an international student who has been accepted into a U.S. university, the visa process will start just after you graduate high school and your enrollment into your chosen college has been finalized,” says Leelila Strogov, CEO of AtomicMind, an education and admissions consulting company.
Most schools will be in touch with admitted international students in early summer to begin gathering information for their visa.
“Be sure that you are responsive to their emails and get them the requested information in a timely manner, or your visa documents could be delayed,” says Strogov.
