I specifically don't know the answer but think about it for a moment... A K-2 or a K-4 can be enrolled in school... should not the K-1 or K-3 get equal treatment?

YMMV

We also need to remember that you are technically only on K-1 status until the I-94 expires (first 90 days) so maybe the question is only partially can a K-1/2/3/4 attend school but in addition can you attend school whilst you are awaiting your adjustment of status application to be approved.

YMMV

Yes, exactly. I want to know if I can attend school during the time I'm awaiting my AOS.

YES :yes: you can enroll in school, talk with the admissions department of the schools you are interested in. Keep in mind if the school is state funded you will be paying NON-Resident rates.

OUR TIME LINE Please do a timeline it helps us all, thanks.

Is now a US Citizen immigration completed Jan 12, 2012.

You really need to call the school you want to attend to find out. It will also depend on what kind of schooling you mean. If it's full time University classes, you're going to need your transcripts, have them read, then I suspect they'd allow you to attend after consulation, but at out of state rates, which will blow your mind.

If you have children, of course your children can attend school, and the school will talk to you about admission.

If you're wanting to take some classes, whether credit or non-credit, say if it was to pass the time while awaiting work authorization, again, check with your school.

I applied for my SSN as soon as I entered the US. This is all that was required of me to take Spanish (a credited class) with the local Community College. Again, for full time studies, it would have required transcripts from my University in Canada, and at LEAST a consulation with a dean here to see about what courses they could give me credit to me for.

When it comes to paying the state rate or the non-state rate, it varies from school to school. Some will base it on how long the usa citizen has resided in that state, so best to check out each schools policy!!

Canadians Visiting the USA while undergoing the visa process, my free advice:

1) Always tell the TRUTH. never lie to the POE officer

2) Be confident in ur replies

3) keep ur response short and to the point, don't tell ur life story!!

4) look the POE officer in the eye when speaking to them. They are looking for people lieing and have been trained to find them!

5) Pack light! No job resumes with you

6) Bring ties to Canada (letter from employer when ur expected back at work, lease, etc etc)

7) Always be polite, being rude isn't going to get ya anywhere, and could make things worse!!

8) Have a plan in case u do get denied (be polite) It wont harm ur visa application if ur denied,that is if ur polite and didn't lie! Refer to #1

Also, here where I work, Ontario resident students pay the same tuition as Michigan residents do.
