I'm an African currently residing in India; my current student visa expires on 30th June, 2018. I just completed my masters degree and awaiting my results. I'll like to apply for a visa to do my PhD in the US. Do you advise I do the visa interview here in India or go back to my country for the visa interview. I sincerely wish to do the visa interview in India as it will help me to save on flight back to my country. please let me know if it's advisable to do the visa interview in India or my country in Africa.

You should apply from the country you are currently residing in. If you are looking at going on a holiday in the middle of your studies (get a letter from the university or whatever saying you are still registered there and will be returning) you will probably have a better chance of being approved than if you go after you’ve graduated, when it will be harder to show ties to return anywhere.

Please what should be the title of the letter to be obtained from my university?

Awesome advise! Thank you! I'll definitely do that

Thank you @missileman for your reply.
