Can I choose which US university I transfer to?

Yes. When you apply, you’ll rank your preferred partner universities. Woolf’s unified application allows you to be considered by multiple institutions with one submission.

 

What happens if I don’t meet the credit transfer requirements?

You can still apply to transfer, but you may need to complete more coursework and pay full tuition at the US university. You can also choose to continue and finish your degree online with Woolf

 

When should I apply for the Fall 2025 intake?

The application deadline is June 2, 2025, for programs starting in August 2025. Early preparation of tests and documents is strongly encouraged.

  • English language test results (IELTS, TOEFL, etc.)
  • Two academic recommendation letters
  • Proof of funds for visa
  • Transcripts and academic records

 

Will I get help with finding housing in the US?

Yes. Partner universities offer access to on-campus housing and can help with accommodation arrangements as part of your enrollment process.

 

Can I apply if I’m still completing my courses with Woolf/Metis?

Yes. You can begin the application process once you’ve completed at least 50% of your degree, but the transfer won’t proceed until all required credits are completed.

 

What if my visa is denied?

Visa outcomes depend on individual circumstances and consulate decisions. Woolf offers interview prep and guidance, and if denied, you can continue your degree online through Woolf without interruption.

 

Is there a GPA requirement for transferring?

While the documents don’t specify a GPA cutoff, academic performance affects credit transfer and admission outcomes. Aim for strong grades to maximize credit recognition and scholarship chances.

 

Are scholarships available?

Some US partner universities may offer merit-based scholarships or discounts, especially if you transfer a high number of credits. These are assessed case-by-case during admissions.

 

Can I work while studying in the US?

Yes. As an F-1 student:

  • You’re eligible for CPT (Curricular Practical Training) during your studies.
  • You can work up to 20 hours per week on campus.

After graduation, you’re eligible for up to 3 years of OPT if in a STEM program

 

What happens after OPT ends?

Many students seek:

  • H-1B sponsorship through US employers
  • Graduate programs for further study

Return to home country with enhanced job prospects Woolf and partner universities offer career counseling and employer networking to support your next steps.

 

Can I defer my admission if something changes?

Yes, most US partner universities allow for deferral requests, usually for up to one academic year. This depends on individual university policies, and you'll need to contact Woolf or the university directly to process it.

 

Will I be studying online or in-person after transferring?

Once you transfer to the US university, your studies will be in-person on campus. However, if needed, you can choose to complete your Woolf degree online instead of transferring.

 

Is the $150 application fee refundable?

No, the application fee is non-refundable. However, it is waived for students who attend an AMA (Ask Me Anything) session before applying.

 

What kind of jobs can I apply for during or after the program?

During your studies (CPT), and after (OPT), you can work in:

  • Tech companies (e.g., software development, data analytics)
  • Consulting firms
  • Startups
  • Research labs
  • Any employer willing to hire F-1 visa holders in your field

 

Can I bring dependents (family members) on an F-1 visa?

Yes. You may bring dependents (spouse/children) under F-2 visas. They cannot work but may study in the US.

 

Are there program-specific prerequisites?

Yes. Some degrees (like MS in Computer Science) may require a relevant undergraduate background or specific coursework. Check each university's requirements during the application process.

 

Is health insurance included or required?

Yes, US universities require health insurance for international students. Most offer a university-provided plan, or you may be allowed to submit proof of an approved private plan.

 

What if I want to transfer to a non-partner university?

This program is structured specifically for Woolf’s partner universities. Transferring to a non-partner university would likely require a separate application and may not honor Woolf credit equivalency.

 

How long can I stay in the US after completing my degree?

After OPT ends, you typically have a 60-day grace period to:

  • Apply for a new visa (e.g., H-1B, graduate study)
  • Change visa status
  • Leave the US
