Heflin also told that in June and first half of July, applicants can send their applications for student visas.

The minister has stated that in this summer chance to study in USA will be given to the fresh applicants. Here is the list of applicants who can apply for the student visa:

• Students who have never sent an application
• Students who completed their high school and want to go for graduation
