The difference between class B tourist visa and class F study visa.

Class B tourist visa and class F study visa reflect your status in the United States. The first successful tourist visa means that you are a tourist when you arrive in the United States. After returning to China, I want to re-sign a class F study visa, but I don't want to go to the United States in another capacity. Even if I don't succeed, it won't affect your status as a tourist before.

Visa conversion is difficult.

When you come to the United States with an American tourist visa, you can apply to change other visas, but this change is extremely difficult (the US Immigration Service will think that you have the intention of cheating when applying for a tourist visa, but in fact you want to study in the United States and avoid complicated student visa procedures).

Visa conversion takes time.

It is also impossible to change a B-type visa into an F-type study visa in a short time. It usually takes more than two months to change to a single room. In addition, before the visa type is approved, the school is a country that does not allow applicants to enter school.

Risk of visa refusal

You may need to re-apply for a visa when you leave the United States and enter the United States after a successful transfer in the United States. For example, you entered the United States as B2, and then you changed to F 1 as a student and joined the school. When you want to go back to school to complete your studies after leaving the United States, you must apply for an F- 1 student visa at the American embassy or consulate again. We have also seen many cases in which embassies and consulates refused to issue visas to students with changed status.

It is recommended to apply for a study visa in China.

The advice given by Changyou in the United States is: after a successful tourist visa, whether you have been to the United States or not, try to apply for a class F study visa in China, which is also the most standardized process.
