F-1 Student Visa

F-1 Student Visa-In a culturally diverse community such as South Florida, the F-1 Student Visa is not a foreign sounding term. For foreign born adolescents and adults, the possibility exists to attend a U.S. college or university program upon obtaining F-1 student status. After September 11th, this visa received a bad wrap.

The requirements of eligibility are, however, far from being lax. The first step is meeting the respective entry requirements for the school of choice. Once accepted into a higher education program, the student must either apply for the F-1 visa at a U.S. embassy inside the home country or if already present in the U.S. in another non immigrant visa category file a non immigrant visa petition for a change to F-1 status. The school gives the student so called I-20 papers that need signatures from both a school official and the student.
