Many schools will work with you while you are working on your visa. Takes a lot of red tape though.

Airport immigration will give you 6 weeks as a tourist. However, your prospective school should at least help and guide you with the process with Immigration and 6 weeks should be enough to get your student visa.

hello!

You may travel using tourist visa. I think they give you 2months visa initiall from embassy. After joining college then you apply for Conversion from 9A to 9F. You need to submit all the attested documents at immigration during that time.

BTW, which college / uni. are you going to

Gudluck!

I am studying at UST. I'll be in 3rd year Med proper this coming school year. My questions are: will I be able to apply for internship in the United States? If I do get an internship in the US, will I be able to take the Philippine board? Thank you very much to those who will take time to reply.
