The United States remains the top choice for Indian students.

The US Mission is working hard to ensure that more Indian students can pursue education in the US, predicting an increase in student visa applications this year. The US Embassy in India issued over 140,000 student visas in 2022, more than any other country. This number is expected to increase in 2024 as more Indian students seek academic opportunities in the US. Beyond student visas, Garcetti highlighted the broader impact of people-to-people connections, saying, "These are bonds that last a lifetime."

 

The US is focused on student visas and aims to reduce wait times for other visa applications. The Ambassador noted the wait time for tourist visas has also been reduced by 75%, with an average wait time below 250 days. This reduction is part of an ongoing effort to strengthen connections between the US and India and improve the visa application process.
