"Great classes, incredible teachers, amazing people. I will be back."

Claudia Regina Díaz Pinto, student from Chile

I stayed for three months at FIT campus in a very good bedroom. The toilet was cleaned well except for that one week when the cleaning lady went on a vacation. I didn't like the dinning hall food but there were other options if you want. Very good classes, teachers were responsible, always on time and prepared well for their classes. The management and academic team were very friendly and always willing to help. Every month there was a calendar of activities planned at low cost where you could go and learn a little more about US and practice your English. Great experience. I will be back.

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.

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.
