How to get a US Study/F1 Visa?

Every year, untold hundreds of thousands of professionals and students alike attempt to bring their careers to the USA. The visa process for the USA is notoriously difficult, and those looking to stay for a longer period or even to work there can find it difficult to navigate the ins and outs of the process. Fortunately, there are multiple visa options available for students and professionals alike to take advantage of all of the benefits of living in the USA, one of which is the F1 student visa. In this article, we will be explaining the ins and outs of the F1 visa process and telling you exactly how it can benefit your hospitality career.

What is the F1 Visa?

The F1 visa is a visa type dedicated to international students who want to study in the USA in a
government-approved institution temporarily. Essentially the idea of this visa is to allow
international students to take advantage of the amazing education system in the USA before
going back home.

What does it let you do?

First and foremost, the visa lets students enter the USA and stay in the country throughout the
entire duration of their education, without needing to return home or renew the visa. This is the most obvious allowance of the visa, but there is also another aspect of the visa that maybe isn’t as well-known as the first, this is the CPT and the OPT. Let’s go over them both quickly
CPT stands for Curricular Practical Training. Put simply; a CPT is essentially a paid internship
that you can do during your US education in a position that is directly related to your field of
study.

The OPT, on the other hand, stands for Optional Practical Training, itis a paid internship in a
position related to your field of study except this can be done after you have graduated from
your US education, essentially allowing you to stay an extra year.

So now you know what exactly you can do with this visa, what are the requirements of the F1
visa?

The requirements:

● Be enrolled in an “academic” educational program, with a school approved by the US government

● Proficiency in English or be enrolled in courses leading to English proficiency

● Possess sufficient funds for self-support throughout the entire proposed duration of the study

● Maintain a residence in your home country (or place of permanent residence) Which you have no intention of giving up

Once you have all of the documents and have submitted them to the embassy, you will most likely have to go through an interview aimed at finding out whether or not you have chosen to apply for the F1 visa for the right reasons and you are intending to stick to the limitations.

Once you’ve completed the interview, all you need to do is wait for your visa to be stamped and pack your bags!
