How Do I Book an F-1 Visa Appointment for the U.S.?

10 views

I’m planning to apply for an F-1 student visa and need help understanding the appointment booking process. What are the steps to schedule a U.S. visa interview after completing the DS-160? Do I need to pay the visa fee before booking, create an account on the appointment portal, and schedule both biometrics and the consular interview? I’d also appreciate any tips on finding available appointment dates.
