American education at your fingertips: All about the F-1 visa

The F-1 visa is an essential study permit for anyone wishing to study in the United States. Covering a wide range of educational institutions, it extends from universities to private elementary schools.

To study in the United States, all international students (with the exception of Canadians) need this F-1 student visa. This also includes students from countries that participate in the Visa Waiver Program and who would normally be eligible for an ESTA.

First Step: Getting Admitted to a US Institution

To obtain an F-1 visa, you must first be admitted to an educational institution in the United States. The acceptance letter you obtain will be one of the documents required in the visa application process.

Normally, all educational programs, from elementary school, long-term English courses to postgraduate studies, require international students to have an F-1 visa.

High Approval Rate: An Open Opportunity

It is important to note that there is no quantitative limit on the number of F-1 visas issued. The United States does not set a maximum number of F-1 visas to be issued each year. In general, students who meet the necessary requirements have a good chance of being approved for an F-1 visa.
