USA student visa

Almost anyone regardless of age or educational background can apply for a F-1 Student Visa to live and study in the United States. How to apply for a Student Visa: Download the F-1 Student Visa Application Guide. Select where in the Unites States of America you would like to live and study. Choose the type of school you would like like to attend, such as: University, College, Graduate School, ESL (English as Second language) or Vocational School. Contact the school and start the admission process. Upon acceptance by school, the school will issue you an I-20 form (the required document you need to apply for F-1 student visa). With the I-20 form and the F-1 Visa Application Guide you can apply for a student visa at a U.S. Embassy or Consulate. If you are already in the Unites States you may be allowed change your immigration status to student. You may be legally authorized to work in the United States while on a F-1 student visa. Tomorrow we are going to be talking about how to avoid falling out of status, what to do when you fall out of status and we would be sharing our diffrent experiences with fallen out of status.

Are the schools really free??

Many International students wonder if the tuition in theses schools are really free. YES!! When a school offers you full scholarship, tuition and board, it means that they will give you accomodation for free, and also give you free education. However, there is a price to pay. You will naturally need to at least have a 3.0 GPA to maintain the scholarship otherwise you may have to start bearing the cost. The first step is for you to take the SATS. You should look at the following websites to see thier SAT requirements for scholarship consideration. www.howard.edu www.fmu.edu www.fau.edu www.tsu.edu www.msu.edu www.kennesaw.edu. Feel free to post comments on schools you know also offer scholarships. xoxo
