Hi

This forum is intended to answer questions regarding adjustment of status (green card) for student, tourist or work visa holders based on family ties not about the process to apply for a student visa.

About your question, US embassies never stopped issuing visas for tourists nor students, and they provide them all year long to those who qualify; about the time that will take them, I suggest calling your local US embassy since times variate according to the country where the embassy is located and the number of applicants.

regards,

You usually need to have an offer letter from a US university to be able to get a student visa, as well as being able to proof to the embassy that you can support yourself and pay tuition fees (which are expensive!).

Yes you can apply for a student visa. The first thing you will need to do is apply and be accepted to a US university. To do this, you will need certified, translated transcripts from any school you went to (ie High School or Universities). You willl also need to show the US school that you can afford their 'out of state' tuition and books for 1 year, when I attended 4 years ago that amount was $10,000 - but it may have increased over the years. After your acceptance to university, you may apply for a student visa. A student visa is not an immigrant visa so you will need to show intent to return to your home country and ties to your home country.

This was the process I went through when I arrived on a student visa. I am sure things have changed and issuance of visas vary from country to country.

Good luck.
