It is also helpful to carry any university/college brochures or pamphlets that you received, and print-outs from university website explaining about your program and university life in general. There are over 4000 universities in US. In the worst case, if the visa officer is not too much aware about your university or program, you can always show these documents to strengthen your case. It might seem unnecessary, but it never hurts!
