Will the slots for visa application appear randomly and do we need to book them quickly?

Yes, U.S. visa appointment slots in India are released at unpredictable times and often fill up within minutes due to high demand.

Slots can appear randomly across all five U.S. consulates - New Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai, Hyderabad, and Kolkata - and appointment availability varies by location. For popular intakes like Fall 2026, slots have been known to disappear almost instantly after release.

Visa appointment schedules and wait times are subject to change. Be prepared to book quickly when a slot becomes available. If you need help with the process, reach out to your LeapScholar counsellor.
