These questions will be similar to your university application essays and interviews. Simply enough, they are interested in your choice of pursuing higher education rather than joining the workforce. They are also interested in your choice to study in the US versus your home country or any other place.

Why are you going to the US?
What will you specialize in for your degree?
What will be your major?
Where did you go to school now?
Who is your current employer? What do you do?
Why are you planning to continue your education?
Can you not continue your education in your home country?
How will this study program relate to your past work or studies?
