US Universities with 80%+ Acceptance Rates Facing Up To 70% Visa Rejection Rates

There’s been a noticeable trend this year, students admitted to US universities with high acceptance rates (80% and above) are reportedly experiencing significantly higher visa rejection rates, in some cases up to 70%.

Several consultancies and online discussions suggest that visa approvals are becoming more selective, and many believe the scrutiny is higher for students applying to less selective universities. Some students have shared their experiences on Reddit and Instagram, describing repeated rejections.
