monthly reports showing Indian students were granted 64,008 F-1 visas between January and September this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This shows a steep fall from 1,03,495 visas issued during the same period in 2023.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It holds a significance as this is also the least number of visas issued to Indian students since the pandemic-affected 2020.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Then it was just 6,646 requests were considered during the same timeframe.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Indians Becoming The Largest Cohort of Overseas Students In US<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A total of 93,181 Indian students were given F-1 visas between January 2022 and September 2022, considering a post-pandemic rebound.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before that the number stood at 65,235 during 2021.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A total of 73,781 F-1 visas were issued to Chinese students in the first nine months of 2024, down from 80,603 issued during the same time frame in 2023, revealed in the official data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although, this number still stood higher than the 52,034 F-1 visas issued to Chinese students in 2022.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As we know that F-1 visa is a non-immigrant visa which permits international students from across the world to study full-time in the United States.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Besides this, it is also counted as the most common visa status for students from other countries in the US.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It seems that that Indians had surpassed Chinese non-migrants to become the largest cohort of overseas students in the United States in 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A total of 3,31,000 Indian students were studying in US institutions during the 2023-24 academic year which is quite higher as compared to 2,68,923 the previous year, as per the Open Doors 2024 report.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In a recent update from Washington DC, Indian students are facing a significant drop in study visas issued to them there.\u00a0 Indian Students Facing Significant Drop In Study Visa It appears that there is a 38 percent decline in F-1 student visas issued to Indian nationals during the first nine months of 2024 compared to [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":27,"featured_media":1288366,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[21],"tags":[6081,1129],"class_list":["post-1288359","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-business","tag-student-visa","tag-us"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.9 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>38% Drop In Student Visa For Indian Students In USA Between January To September, 2024 - Trak.in - Indian Business of Tech, Mobile &amp;
