F1 visa rejected with214(b)
Status : *rejected*
Consulate : *Hyderabad*
Time: 9:00
A person who is assisting the queue took my passport and i20 and placed it at my counter.
VO: please move forward...good morning.
Me: good morning sir.
VO: ok you are going to Kettering University.
Me: yes sir.
VO: when did you graduate?
Me: told
VO: what's your percentage
Me: told
VO : how many universities have you applied?
Me: I said 2
VO: why only these 2 universities?
Me: gave the reasons.
VO: what's the other University?
Me: University of Michigan Dearborn

That was the last question he asked. He typed something and said these words *unfortunately I can't grant your visa*

Gave me 214(b).
I really wanted to study. My intention was not to stay there but why I got this rejection. Is there anyway I could prove them in my next chance?

F2 visa denied
Hello All,
My wife was denied F2 visa in May for possible immigration intention and handed 214(b) form. We are thinking of reapplying for her visa. Now the question is whether we should reapply in the same category or try in other category like visitors visa? Please advise.

Rejected B1/B2 twice.
I applied for B1/B2 VISA twice for USMLE step 2 CS examination, but rejected both times.
Now I am thinking of joining Masters program on student visa with good GRE scores. Is this decision wise or I should try the third time on visitor visa. Are my chances of getting F 1 visa less?
Please guide me.
