While you are taking online courses from outside the United States, you will not be required to have a visa.
A Fully Online Class Schedule in the U.S. Is Not Allowed Per government guidance, new international students pursuing academic studies (classified as F-1 nonimmigrants) or vocational studies (classified as M-1 nonimmigrants) cannot come to the U.S. this fall if they plan to enroll in a fully online course of study.
If you wish wish to engage in academic studies in the United States at an approved school, such as an accredited U.S. college or university, private secondary school, or approved English language program then you will need an F-1 visa. You will also need an F-1 visa if your course of study is more than 18 hours a week.
Per federal regulations, B-1 and B-2 nonimmigrants (i.e., visitors who are in the United States for business and pleasure purposes) are prohibited from enrolling in a course of study at a U.S. Student and Exchange Visitor Program (SEVP)-certified school.
Can international students enroll in online courses? Only one online or distance learning class can count toward a full course of study for an F-1 student during each term or semester. No online or distance learning classes may count toward an M-1 or ESL student's full course of study requirement.
Yes. You can get a degree from an online university in the United States. Most online universities in the United States are certified by one of the six regional accrediting bodies.
No. You can only hold one visa status at a time. You can't be both F and B.
F-1 students may not work off-campus during the first academic year, but may accept on-campus employment subject to certain conditions and restrictions. After the first academic year, F-1 students may engage in three types of off-campus employment: Curricular Practical Training (CPT)
The F2 Visa is a non-immigrant temporary permit for the immediate family of F1 Student Visa holders. If you are an international student enrolled at a U.S. educational institution, your children and spouse can join you in the country.
B-1/B-2 Status Visitors entering in this status cannot engage in employment in the U.S. nor enroll in an academic study program. The U.S. Department of State expressly indicates that the B-1 may be used for "independent" research.
What Can You Do With a B1/B2 Visa?Hire and fire a staff.Perform research.Plan out and spend money on investments and purchases.Attend business meetings, negotiations, and investment and sales meetings.Attend up to 18 hours per week of recreational lessons.Bring along dependents like children (only for a B2 status)More items...•

Generally, the I-20 will be issued within 2 weeks once we have all of the required documents and payment. Please keep this in mind if you want to apply for your visa as soon as possible.
An F-1 visa is an immigration document that permits a foreign citizen to come to the US to study full-time for a temporary period of time.
A non-immigrant visa is an immigration document that permits a citizen of a foreign country to enter into the U.S. for a temporary period of time. It also determines what a non-immigrant is allowed to do while in the U.S. There are many different types of visas, depending on the reason for coming to the U.S.
Kaplan does not issue visas and therefore cannot confirm the likelihood of approval. However, you should note that visa issuance is not guaranteed.
In general, you are expected to visit the U.S. Embassy/Consulate in the country for which you hold citizenship (i.e. the country that issued your passport). If your country does not have a U.S. Embassy/Consulate or if you are currently located in a different country to the one that issues your passport, you should contact the closest U.S. Embassy to see if they can accept your application for an F-1 visa. To learn more about your local U.S. Embassy, visit US Department of State website.
If you have not received your F-1 visa, you can change your Kaplan location. You must contact Kaplan to confirm the new location and a new I-20 will be mailed to you from the new location. Your original I-20 will be cancelled, so you should not use it at the U.S. Embassy or Port of Entry.

In most cases, the government’s decision is final and there is little Kaplan can do to change their decision. Another alternative if you're having visa problems, is to try enroll in one of our online products which allow you to study for the USMLE from anywhere you’d like.
