F2A i485 pending - school admission

[buluxu91]

Hello everyone,

I am thinking of getting back to school to get Masters degree, right now I am on OPT and it expires in December 2019. Do I have to apply for new I-20 when I get to new school or should I just apply to school as someone who has pending adjustment of status.

Thank you.

You should reach out to the school's Office of International Education asking that question. I was in a similar boat when I was admitted for my Ph.D.It might help if you have an underlying status in case your i485 is denied.
