Student Visa

Foreign nationals have the opportunity to engage in academic studies in the United States. Most important, the applicant must be enrolled as a full-time student in an “academic” education program. The applicant must acquire a certificate of eligibility from the academic institution at which he/she will enroll.

There are some requirements to be eligible for Student Visa:

• The applicant must be proficient in English or be enrolled in English language courses leading to proficiency.

• The alien must have sufficient funds available to support himself/herself while staying in the United States.

• The applicant must aim to leave the U.S. after completion of his/her studies.

• The alien also must intend to attend the school specified on the visa upon arrival in the United States.
Students may also engage in some types of on-campus and work/study employment pursuant. In addition, students may be eligible for employment authorization because of unforeseen economic necessity.
