During International Education Week, the U.S. Department of State highlights
existing efforts to attract future leaders from abroad to take advantage of
the exceptional educational opportunities in the United States. We also
recognize that foreign students bring with them tremendous intellectual,
social, and economic benefits. As part of these efforts, the Department’s
Bureau of Consular Affairs gives student visa appointments special priority.
All U.S. embassies and consulates expedite visa processing for foreign
students to ensure qualified students are able to begin their academic
program on time. Worldwide, the maximum wait for a student visa appointment
is fewer than 15 days. Foreign students can apply for their visas up to 120
days before their academic programs begin. We always encourage all visa
applicants to apply early.
At home and abroad, students continue to seek international education to
gain the skills, the contacts, and the experience necessary to succeed in
the global marketplace. The consistent growth in international enrollments
in the United States attests to the universally recognized pre-eminence of
the country’s higher education system. International education grew by
nearly 9 percent during the 2010/11 academic year, and foreign students
studying in the United States brought $21.3 billion into the domestic
economy. Most importantly, educational exchanges foster mutual understanding
, respect, and goodwill between Americans and people around the world.
