Why Study in the USA?
World‑Renowned Universities
The USA is home to globally top‑ranked universities and colleges offering programs across all major fields including Engineering, IT, Business, Health Sciences, Arts, and more — all recognized worldwide for quality and innovation.
Flexible Learning & Practical Experience
The U.S. education system encourages hands‑on learning, research, internships, and opportunities beyond the classroom.
U.S. Student Visa – F‑1 Overview
To study in the USA, international students typically require an F‑1 Student Visa — a non‑immigrant visa for full‑time academic or language training programs.
You will first receive a Form I‑20 from your institution once admitted, which is needed to apply for the F‑1 visa at the U.S. Embassy.
Important Student Visa Requirements
You must demonstrate
– A confirmed offer of admission from a U.S. SEVP‑certified school
– Sufficient financial resources to cover tuition, living expenses, and travel
– A valid passport and supporting documentation
– Intent to study full‑time and return home after your education
– Payment of the SEVIS fee and Visa Application (MRV) fee
Work Options for F‑1 Students
Optional Practical Training (OPT)
After completing your degree, you may be eligible for Optional Practical Training (OPT) — work authorization for up to 12 months in your field of study.
STEM degrees may be eligible for an additional 24‑month STEM OPT extension (total up to 36 months).
Bringing Dependents to the USA
Documentation & Financial Proof
To bring dependents, you must show that you have sufficient funds to support them while in the USA — typically including bank statements showing additional financial support for each dependent.
Rights & Limitations for F‑2 Dependents
Work
– F‑2 spouses and children are not permitted to work in the U.S. on an F‑2 visa.
Study
– Spouses: May not enroll in full‑time degree programs but can take recreational or part‑time studies.
– Children: Can attend elementary and secondary school (K‑12) full‑time as F‑2 dependents
Post‑Completion Opportunities
Practical Training (OPT / CPT)
After completing your program:
– OPT allows up to 12 months of work experience in your field after graduation.
– STEM OPT Extension (if eligible) can add 24 more months of work authorization.
These programs help you gain valuable U.S. workplace skills and enhance your global employability.
