Hi All! Thanks in advance for any help you can give. 

 

So in spring 2014 in completed the 3rd year of my B-arch at SCI-Arc in Los Angles. I still had 2 yrs till i completed. I unexpectedly had to take a leave of absence for the next academic year due to financial exchange rate reasons. I returned to SA in december 2014 with plans to remain home until the next fall. In march 2015 I decided to return to move my apartment into storage (cheaper than paying rent). Now (stupidly) I went using my student visa which still had 3yrs on it . At the POE i was told my SEVIS had been cancelled which i was not aware of (due to ignorance) and that my visa was being cancelled and i was put on a flight back home. I was found inadmissible under section 212(a) (7)(a)(i)(I) with a 235(b). 

 

I've been home since working , havent tried to go back because the whole event was a bit traumatic tbh. I have recently come into some money and am able to complete my degree FINALLY! The school kept my place and I've just received my i-20. I'm looking for advice on the process of getting permission to return to school. Would a (7)(a)(i)(i) apply with a 212 at the visa interview? Thanks
