Hi all... My wife's niece is visiting from Latvia and has expressed interest in studying here. I believe she has one more year left of High School in her country. Is it possible to obtain a student visa for a high school student? If so, I know that they would have to attend a private school. What would be the first steps in obtaining legal permission to stay for studies?
