What is the difference between an F-1 and an M-1 Visa?
The F-1 Visa is issued to those students who have applied for and have been accepted to study at an accredited U.S. college or university, or to study English at a university or language institute. It also includes seminaries, conservatories, and academic high schools. The M-1 Visa is issued to those students enrolled in nonacademic or vocational programs. What is a J-1 Visa? The J-1 Exchange Visitor Visa is issued to individuals who take part in a wide range of exchange visitor programs sponsored by schools, businesses, and a variety of organizations and institutions. These programs are envisioned for business and industrial trainees, scholars, students, international visitors, teachers, research assistants, and those on cultural missions. In addition, there are several exchange visitor programs for young people, including summer employment programs, internship programs for university students and au-pair programs.
