    There are several reasons for visa rejections and they vary from a case to case.
    Canada: Along with the failures in Bachelors or 12th, they are also looking at the individual marks of the student. If student has less marks in core subjects, it can be the reason of refusal. Student should also check if he has secured admission but his IELTS score and the admission requirements on the college website differ, that can be the another reason. Student has a choice of submitting application online or offline. While uploading online documents, student should check if they are readable clearly.

    Intent of immigration is the major cause. I think overseas counselor must put forward facts and guide students accurately in this regard. Regardless of work permits and PR options applicants should not in any case give hints of settling down in the foreign country. Irrelevant course choice is another reason.

    A student must be actually serious about studying abroad particularly these countries and not just apply for the sake of it. Clear future plans and relevant study is important. I totally agree with Mr. Satish, US is a different case altogether. Ultimately it actually depends on the visa officer's mood!

    In my experience I have seen rejections due to only improper documentation in case of UK and none in case of Canada and Australia so far, US is a different case where rejections have happened in spite of proper documentation, I agree with Sharna that the major reason is the intent of immigration shown by students due to lack of awareness.

    Visa reject is a nightmare for applicants. Many a times students receive the admission offer from the college abroad but unfortunately do not pass the visa process.
    Visa rejections may be due to several reasons. Appropriate course selection, evidence of fund, proper documentation are very crucial. Another major reason is the intent of immigration shown by students due to lack of awareness.
