You REALLY ought to get it before setting foot inside the USA.  If you do not, you run the risk of being sent back immediately, thus losing your airfare money and being right back where you started from with less money than before.\n\nAnother thing to remember is that Hispanic people somewhat resemble people from the Middle East and Pakistan.  Recently, one such person who behaved bizarrely, possibly owing to mental problems, was shot dead by the security police in plain clothes (Air Marshals) who may or may not be on some flights.\n\nFalse statements and not actually doing what you claimed to be here for will also get you deported.\n\nGet your VISA ahead of time, and do not be disappointed!

The first question is, what country do you want to go for your graduate? Your own or a foreign country? If you are "remarkably intelligent," you should be able to figure that out. Usually, people go for "rich, developed countries" like US and UK. After that, find universities that give out financial aid for international students and have your majors or whatever it is you want to study, then try to meet their standards for a foreign student (again, you are intelligent, right?). Aim high, usually private and/or pricier schools have scholarships. When they accept and look at your income, which is low, I guess, they often will give you some kind of financial aid, such as scholarships, loan, in-campus jobs...\n\nGood luck,\n\nA foreign student currently studies in the US

You can get married, or go to college here.\nThough, student visas are issued for the period it takes the visitor to complete his/her course of study, program or work assignment and are non-immigrant as long as you study you are legal. Non-immigrant student visas can be categorised as F-1 visa, M-1 visa and J-1 Visa. \nF1 visa is for students qualified to attend full time college, university etc. in the United States. In order to be qualifyed for getting an F1, you must be accepted by an recognised university in a full time capacity. You must also prove the sufficient financial support during this stay in United States. Accept for the training required by the course an F-1 holder cannot work.\n\nM1 visa is for students attending vocational courses.\n\nAnd while you study don't waist your time find someone and get married

I have met many foreign students in Denmark (including from USA), and I don't think it will be difficult at all to get a student visa once you have been admitted to the school/college/university that you are planning to go to. You must just show that you have funds to support yourself while you are there, and that you speak the language that you will be taught in. You get the visa for one year at a time, so you must apply every year. \nI have provided the link for student visas on the official institution in Denmark, that deals with all visas and permits - it is called "udlændingestyrelsen" in danish.

Look for your grades, are they high enough to go to U.S or U.K.  Colleges and universities in U.S (I don;t know UK) requires (and prefer) international students have very high grade.\n- Take the TOEFL first, if you get high grade begin anther step.\n- look for some possible schools you want to go.\n- go to their websites, look for the degree you'd like to pursue, also tuition, room, fee, living...find one suitable for your budget. Opportunities of scholarship and requirement.\n- Apply for one or two.  If you have money you can apply for all, because the fee$ 40-100 to apply for a school, it's better if you just apply "convenient" numbers. Also apply for scholarship the same time.\n- Wait until one of school accepts you, either your application's rejected or accepted, the school will send you a letter.\n- If accepted, apply for visa....

When I have applied they always seem to want it. I do believe that if you are coming straight from that country you will need it. If you have been attending school here I do not think it is needed.

beginning of your third year.start preparing from mid-second year.that way you'll have enough time to re-take the test if you want. apply early to the first few colleges on your list.early applications do help.and taking it then will also give you enough time to apply for your visa which could be an extremly tedious process.it's also good to know your score one way or the other before your campus interviews because if you score high you don't really need to bother much with those.provided you have a decent g.p.a

Well, that depends on what subject you want to study in the university. As for actuarial science, I would go for the USA.

Work on your English before you apply!\n\nBut seriously, most universities have on-line applications these days, both for admission and for financial aid.  While most scholarships go to Americans, and at state universities to citizens of that state, some of them are open to foreign students.  But you will need very good English, because you will be competing with those who have spoken it from birth.\n\nYou might also check whether your government, or private foundations in your country or in America, offer scholarships that are not tied to where you go to school.  For example, many large corporations have non-profit foundations associated with them for tax reasons.  There are also non-profits that focus on a particular problem, such as the cure for a specific disease.  They tend to have scholarships which are specific to the fields in which their interests lie, such as pre-med and medical school for a foundation to combat a disease, or economics for a foundation interested in combating poverty.\n\nGood luck!

fiance visa is better because she's gonna have more chance of being approved. tourist visa on the other hand has slim chances of her being approved.

There is no law that prohibits you from applying to universities, however it may be better if you just apply as a permanent resident once you reach the US since you will be eligible for financial aid consideration. If you apply as an international student, that would mean that you would need to apply for an F-1 visa and that is not your case. Contact the international students counselor at the university of your choice and ask her/him what would be the best route for you. They will be in a better position to point you in the right direction. Good luck!

Actually this is possible ,however, highly unusual.\nIf you are in the US on a student visa why would you want to have a tourist visa ?\n\nThe visa is used solely for the purposes of entering the US, the actual status that you gain and the amount of time you are allowed to stay is determined by the immigration official at the point of entry.\n\nNow if you already have a b1/b2 visa and you later gain a student visa then it would be possible to have 2 visas. If your tourist visa is valid beyond the student visa validity, they generally do not cancel your tourist visa and they let you keep it for later use. \n\nThe other way around(student visa and then tourist visa) may be a lot more difficult. You'd have to have a good reason for it. I suppose one scenario maybe the if you take a break from your studies, come back home and need to go to the for a short time and later return to the same school to continue your studies. You could ask them to let you keep the student visa when you apply for the tourist one because you plan to go back to school (the school would have to issue you a new I-20). Most of the time ,however, they cancel your old visa when you apply for a new one,

It is better to go as a student. For immigration purposes, you will be better off. Being a student allows you the time to learn about the place. As an employee, you need an employer to employ you. Won't that be difficult if you have never been there and you are inexperienced, you are only a fresher.Sart small and you will grow. If you really want to work there, as a student, you will have ample time to inquire directly about jobs while studying and it is also easy if you have some experience living in the place you will be better equipped and your immigration statue will also be better. Students are allowed to apply for work permits after a certain period.

i work at a university and unless students are perm residents or us citizens they can only get loans that are co-signed. otherwise, they're are not allowed to enter the US unless they have the funds to support themselves for the time they're earning their degree.  if you're enrolled in a us university, you should speak to a financial aid officer or visit the university's website for financial aid and the one for international students.  even if you're not enrolled at this time you can visit the schools website to get the info you need.  at the university where i work they try to put as much info as possible on the website for students, parents, and employees and most of it is available to anyone surfing the web

I am in an Australia University here, I do not have specific friends fom the US, but I see them around and chat casually. It's not too stressful with paperwork. Just start with reading the websites of the particular university you want to come to study. Then, apply, get admission, pay the tuition, receive COE, then go get the visa...We will welcome u with Oz berbie.. and kangaroo delicacy!!

I think your best bet is to look into a student visa. Go through a list of American colleges that you would like to attend and look at their websites. Each website will have a section to mention their stand on International students. Most colleges need to fill a quota for international students so they do offer scholarships, and being admitted to one of these schools will allow you to apply and receive a student visa while you are studying in college. hope this helps.

U.S. is certainly better .First of all itis cheaper to study in U.S. than U.K. Also u tend to get a job more easily in U.S. after u complete ur degree than in U.K.
