Migrate to United States of America (USA)

The United States government offers three students visa types including F, J, and M.

F Student Visa:

for study at an accredited U.S. college or university or to study English at an English language institute.
Our Expert will help all international students with all 3 types of student visa assistance.

J Exchange Visa:

for participation in an exchange program, including high school and university study

M Student Visa:

for non-academic or vocational study or training in the United States

Before you can apply for an F, J, or M student visa, you must first apply and be accepted by a U.S. institution of higher education that is certified by the Student Exchange and Visitor Program (SEVP)

Even when an institution is SEVP-certified and able to issue I-20 and DS-2019 forms for use in visa applications, it may not hold national or regional accreditation.

The U.S. Department of Education and Council for Higher Education Accreditation databases list accreditation status for all U.S. institutions.

Institutions designated by the Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs to place participants in Academic Exchange programs (J visas) must be accredited.

Recognition of course credits and degrees by other institutions and by the U.S. and international employers is linked to an institution’s accreditation.
