To study in the U.S., you typically need an F-1 student visa. The main steps are:

- Pay the SEVIS fee (currently $350; subject to change).
- Complete the DS-160 online form and keep the confirmation page.
- Schedule and attend a visa interview at the U.S. embassy or consulate.
- Prepare required documents: passport, Form I-20, DS-160 confirmation, SEVIS fee receipt, visa fee receipt, financial proof, academic transcripts, and photos.
Visa processing times vary, so apply well before your program’s start date. If you need help with any step, contact your LeapScholar counsellor.
