Who is Allowed to Study in the United States?A nonimmigrant is someone who temporarily comes to the United States for a specific purpose. People who wish to pursue full-time academic or vocational studies are usually admitted to the United States in one of two nonimmigrant categories. The M-1 category includes students in vocational or other nonacademic programs, other than language training. The F-1 category includes academic students and students in language training programs.
How Can I Change My Nonimmigrant Status to Become a Student if I Am Already in the United States?You must be in valid nonimmigrant status in order to apply for a change of status to a student visa and generally, you must be eligible to change status under immigration laws. If you are not eligible to change status due to the type of your nonimmigrant visa, there are certain waivers you may qualify to apply for. Please consult an immigration attorney for more information.
To change status, you first must apply to study at an USCIS-approved school in the United States. When you contact a school that you are interested in attending, you should be told immediately if the school accepts foreign national students. If you are accepted, the school should send you USCIS Form I-20 M-N/ID (Certificate of Eligibility for Nonimmigrant (M-1) Student Status - For Vocational Students).
You must submit this form, your I-94 (Arrival-Departure Record), and a completed USCIS Form I-539 (Application to Extend/Change Nonimmigrant Status) to the USCIS. You must also prove that you have the financial resources required for your education and stay in the United States.
Can I Travel Outside of the United States?Students may leave the United States and be readmitted after temporary absences. When making your travel plans, please remember that you must be a full-time student to keep your M-1 student status. Upon your return to the United States, you should provide immigration inspectors with:
1. A valid passport.
2. A valid M-1 entry visa stamped in the passport (if necessary). A current USCIS Form I-20 ID signed by your designated school official (you should have the designated school official sign your USCIS Form I-20 each time you wish to temporarily travel outside the United States).
3. A new USCIS Form I-20 M-N/ID if there have been any substantive changes in your course of study or place of study.
4. Proof of your financial support.
