jairichi Posted January 3, 2014 Report Share Posted January 3, 2014 I am visiting on visitors' visa but would like to switch to F1 to do MBA. Is it possible to change the status while in US? What is the procedure? The procedure is to go back to home country and apply for a F1 visa and enter US for studies. Link to comment
pontevecchio Posted January 3, 2014 Report Share Posted January 3, 2014 It is usually not possible unless you have potential student notation in your passport after having informed the POE Officer of your intentions. You do realize it takes up to 12-18 months to get admission to a reputable course. Link to comment

What is the procedure? It's better to do it from your home country getting F1 visa will be difficult if you have filed for COS from B2 to F1 in US. Link to comment
