Change of status to F1 with Bridge

Hi there. I am currently on an H4 visa, and it expires in May ending due to aging out. i am studying at a US college, and I plan to do my masters here as well. I will apply for a change of status to F1 once I get a new i-20 from my graduate school, and I need to bridge the gap between the end of my H4 visa and 30 days before my f1 program start date. Is filing a change of status to B2 (bridge application) before my H4 expires enough to grant me lawful presence during that gap, or will the B2 need to be APPROVED before my H4 expires?
