Question from Student]: I got my student visa last week, but I got accepted at a better school. Do I need to apply for a new visa if I decide to go to the better school?
A [EducationUSA Webchat Guests]: Yes, if you have not yet traveled to the U.S., you need to apply for a new student visa with the I20 from the school you intend to attend. When you enter the U.S., the I20 must match the name of the school on the visa. Please request for a fee transferring for your SEVIS fee before applying for a new visa.
