What if I changed status to F1 from a prior visa category. Does the time I spent in school prior to having F1 status count towards the full academic year requirement?

top>> For example, if you were in H4 visa status during the fall semester taking a full course load, but you became an F1 during the following spring semester and still maintained a full course load, yes, the fall semester as an H4 and the spring semester as an F1 will count towards the full academic year.
