USA, Canada / US Tourist Visa for a Polish Student in London [4]

Hi there,

I'm 19 and have lived in London for 11 years. I live with my mom, who supports me financially. I am a student, and am starting a degree here in September. I would like to visit a friend of mine in the US this year, for about a week, but I heard that getting a visa can be a pretty difficult process, as the consul automatically assumes that I will go there to overstay my visa and work.

Overall I think my case looks good - I am a student in London starting a 2 year course here this year, living with my parent, and everything I have is here, which of course I can prove. I am wondering if anyone else have been successful with this? Maybe in a similar situation to myself.

Opinions?
