The two F-1 seasons

Fall intake (interviews roughly April–July) is the year's crush, when I-20s land together and dates vanish in minutes. The Spring wave (October–December) is smaller but thinner-supplied. Between waves, cancellations are the realistic route to an earlier date — which is why SlotDost alerts will always carry a timestamp and a confirmation count, never just a screenshot.
