Jaafar b

Excellent programs and teachers. The stuff was very kind, helpful and friendly. They are an experts in their job. They inspired me alot. It was one of my golden opportunities to study with them. The courses i took were very informative and filled my english speaking and writing gaps. They encourage students by creative games and activities. The studying environment was comfortable. This was the first step on a long way to succeed. Im very glad that i chose them.

visa

Visa support

We cannot apply for visas on behalf of students. However, the school can supply you with all the documentation you need to support your visa application.

If you are studying full time in the United States for more than 18 hours per week, you will receive an I-20 that you need to submit to the US embassy along with your F-1 student visa application. The I-20 has a SEVIS tracking number on it. Students who wish to apply for a student visa must pay the SEVIS fee online before going to the US embassy or consulate for their visa interview.

Your I-20 will be sent to your home address by regular mail at no charge to you. If you wish to receive your paperwork by express mail, you will be charged $120 when you register.

Please note that United States law states that an I-20 can only be issued to students who intend to pursue full-time English language studies. United States law does not permit students to study part-time with an F-1 Student Visa. If you are studying for less than 18 hours per week, you have to apply for a Visitor Visa (B1/B2) on your own.
