New Delhi: The US Mission in India on Thursday (Sept 8) said that it has issued a record 82,000 student visas in 2022 to date. Indian students received more US student visas than any other country.
Patricia A. Lacina, Charge D’Affaires, US Embassy India said on Twitter, “We are happy to see so many students were able to receive visas and reach their universities after the delays caused in previous years by the Covid-19 pandemic. We issued over 82,000 student visas this summer alone, more than in any previous year. This shows that the United States remains for most Indian families the most sought-after country for higher education.”
Last year, US missions in India (that includes the embassy and its consulates) issued 62,000 student visas.
