Apply for a properly accredited, public or non-profit institution that requires GRE and TOEFL. Fall admissions are over in good universities. Do not waste your money by attending for-profit institutions as the degree from that university cannot be used to apply for a H1B under advanced degree quota.

It is easy: Apply at a public university.

All such universities require GRE and TOEFL.

Universities have application deadlines, and the application window for Fall is long closed.

You will not be able to start by this August. You may be able to start in Winter quarter (January), if the university offers that. TOEFL and GRE tests are also done only every few months, and you have to register several months in advance.

Avoid all these shady non-accredited or for-profit institutions, or any institution that doesn't require GRE and TOEFL. These are worthless and you would just waste your money.

I guess you are late for fall semester( aug). Getting an admission from any public university takes at least 3 months time, and if you add the entrance examinations preparation time etc will take you to upto 6 months.

 

If you start preparing now then you can get admission for spring semester( Dec ). Have you heard about GMU in VA??

For an advanced degree program, admissions closed long ago.  You can remain on H4 and even study on it once you get admitted to a real university.

Husband has problems. She wants to remain whether husband can or not. This situation is really odd.

GMU (George Mason University) is a pretty good university.

I heard about GMU. But the tuition fee there is pretty much high.how about Marymount University?Does it also have accreditation issues?

It can be an issue if he is funding her studies or living expenses as I would expect a husband would for his wife.

Like I said earlier, go for public universities not private.
