[F-1 interview]

Well, the US Embassies at different countries have different ways of dealing with that "sending-back-your-passport" issue. In my country, the fee that I paid for the visa includes the payment for the courier that will deliver my passport. I really like this method because I can track my passport online and it is completely hassle-free.

It really depends on the university. I actually had mine delivered even before I accepted the offer.

I have to pay $900 for fees that are not covered by the assistantship, but it was clearly indicated that it will be deducted from my paycheck and distributed evenly every month.

[Do I need to bring another photo to F1 visa Interview?]

If it was accepted through the online application, then you're good to go. But just to be sure, I suggest you bring another photo with you. I'm not sure if it's the same for all the US Embassies, but here in Manila, there's a photo booth in the waiting area/lobby.
