Which one is best for me, B2 Visa Extension or Apply for an student visa?

[SmartAlley]

Hi guys!

This is my situation:

I came to the USA with a B2 Visa and I have 20 days left to comeback to my country.
In this long vacation since Im christian (religion) I use to visit a church where I become a regular member.
The church has their own schools and college and they are interested on sending me to study to the seminary.

Taking in consideration that Im running out of time (20 days left), whats the best option for me?
Apply for a B2 Visa Extension or apply for an Student Visa?

I have all the support of my pastor and the church leaders but the time is against me.

I was thinking on applying for an extension then for an student visa, but I want you to suggest me the best
thing I can do.

Thanks in advance!

with 20 days left you should do neither. The processing for extension or for change of status takes upto 4 months and if you get a denial you will void
your existing visa . As you would have overstayed.

Leave the country, re-enter on the same visa ( that is if you have a multiple entry B1/B2) after 5-6 months with a proper plan . Or apply for a student visa from home country that is if this church course is actually eligible to get you a student visa.
