Change Your Visa Status to F-1 in Dallas – Study English Legally
Changing your visa status to F-1 means applying to the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) to switch from your current non-immigrant visa (such as B1/B2, H4, or another category) to F-1 Student Status—without leaving the United States.
This F-1 change of status option is ideal for people who are already in the U.S. on a different visa type and want to enroll in a full-time academic English program in Dallas, such as Lingua Prime’s Intensive English Program (IEP).
