How to apply for a visa to study in the United States in 2024?

Is your dream to go to the United States to study? Let’s not forget that the country of the stars and stripes is ranked as one of the best for vocational training, with several of the most prestigious institutions in the world.

If you are Mexican and plan to continue your academic training in the neighboring country, you should know that a couple of days ago, the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) made certain changes to its policy guidance regarding when students may apply to the F-1 and M-1 visas.

Before telling you what the updates are to the policy guides for foreign students, you should take into account that, if you are a NON-IMMIGRANT who wants to study full-time in the American Union, then you must have a student visa.

The United States government has two categories of nonimmigrant visas for foreigners who wish to study in the United States, commonly known as F-1 and M-1 visas.

How to get a student visa for the USA?

• Be enrolled in an “academic” educational program, a language training program, or a vocational program
• The school must have approval from the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Student and Exchange Visitor Program
• Be enrolled as a full-time student at the institution
• Have mastery of the English language or be enrolled in courses to achieve mastery
• Have sufficient financial resources to be absent throughout the course of study
• Maintaining residence abroad that you do not intend to surrender

In 2024, the cost of a student visa is $185, and to apply for the document you must complete the DS-160 form.

I have a degree in Communication Sciences from the Autonomous University of Sinaloa (UAS), with a specialization in Organizational Communication. From an early age, I have felt a deep passion for journalism and radio, which led me to do my professional internship at the City Hall of Culiacán, where I had the privilege of writing and recording notes for a radio news program. Currently, I am part of the team of journalists for the news portal debate.com.mx, where I work as an editor specialized in the migration and travel section. My work focuses especially on reporting on procedures related to obtaining American visas, residency in the United States, and the Mexican passport. In addition, I share information about tourist destinations in Mexico and the world, as well as travel tips covering airlines such as Aeroméxico, Volaris, Mexicana de Aviación, and Viva Aerobús. I also have a long history of writing about entertainment news and controversies in Mexico, America and the United Kingdom, as I focused on the British royal family, particularly Kate Middleton, Princess of Wales and wife of Prince William, the next King of England. I have also dedicated myself to writing about police issues, as I have an affinity for addressing sensitive issues with a human approach. Today I am complementing my professional training as a student of the Bachelor of Law at the Autonomous University of Sinaloa.
