Can i book visa slot now without paying SEVIS and without completing DS-160 form?

Question

I got I20 from an university and would like to book a visa slot in November as few other universities will be giving their decisions in October. I might change my uni if I get a better college than my current uni. So, can i book visa slot by paying visa fee and book a slot? Or Do i need to pay Sevis, fill ds160 and then book a slot?

Hi,
It is not possible to book the visa appointment without ds160. You can pay the sevis fees before the visa biometric appointment. To be on the safe side, pay the SEVIS fees atleast 3 to 5 business days ahead of the visa biometric appointment. 
You can find the procedure to change the universities using the following link but my suggestion would be to wait for the decisions since you have time for spring:
