What is an F1 visa?
If you are willing to study English in a language school, or take some degree program in a college or an university in the US, you must obtain an F1 visa, the US student visa.
There are two different visa status categories: One is non-immigrant and the other is immigrant. F-1 visa is categorized as a non-immigrant visa, which means you must go back to your own country after you complete the school program.
How Do You Get an F1 Visa?
The F-1 visa application process is relatively simple compared to working visas such as H1-B or E visa. You can apply for the F-1 visa by yourself, but Bluedata's experienced school agent will support the process. The following is the general application process:
First, you will need to apply for a US school that has been approved by the Student and Exchange Visitor Program (SEVP).
After receiving an acceptance letter by the school of your choice, you will be officially enrolled into the SEVP and are required to pay an application fee.
After all fees including school tuition, application fee, etc. are paid and all the necessary documents submitted to the school, you will receive an "I-20" from the school.
The I-20 will allow you to schedule an interview appointment with a local US embassy or consulate to be granted an F1 visa and officially become an international student!
