A student visa typically referred to as an F-1 visa, is a non-immigrant visa that allows foreign nationals to pursue academic or vocational studies at accredited institutions in the United States. To obtain an F-1 visa, individuals must first be accepted by a Student and Exchange Visitor Program (SEVP)-approved school and demonstrate proof of financial support to cover tuition and living expenses during their stay. F-1 visa holders are generally permitted to work on-campus part-time and may be eligible for off-campus employment under certain conditions. The F-1 visa also allows for practical training opportunities related to the field of study through Optional Practical Training (OPT) and Curricular Practical Training (CPT). Overall, the F-1 student visa provides an opportunity for international students to gain a high-quality education in the United States while experiencing American culture and expanding their professional horizons.
