My TOEFL score is below the required minimum, but the school accepted me. Could I have problems?

When applying for the F visa to study in the U.S., several factors are considered, including communication between the applicant and the institution.

School acceptance indicates that academic criteria have been met, even if the TOEFL score is lower than required. Many institutions evaluate other aspects of the applicant”s profile, trusting their ability to keep up with the course.

However, it is essential to be prepared to demonstrate language proficiency during the consular interview. The F visa presumes that the student is capable of following the chosen course. It is also recommended to strictly comply with immigration laws and seek guidance from qualified professionals to avoid issues in the process.
