Q. 안녕하세요,
저는 2021년 가을학기에 USC 석사과정에 등록할 예정이며, 이미 2020년 10월에 위 석사과정으로 F1 비자를 받았으며, 코로나로 인해 한 학기 연기를 한 상태입니다.
저는 가능하면 석사과정 시작 전에 1~2개월이라도 얼바인의 폴리지점에서 어학연수를 하고 싶은데요. 이와 관련해서,
i) 미국 입국 전에도 석사로 받은 비자의 세비스 기록을 어학원으로 트랜스퍼하여 동일한 세비스 번호로 I-20를 받을 수 있는지,
ii) 어학원으로부터 비자에 기재된 같은 세비스 넘버로 I-20를 받으면 별도 비자 변경 없이도(비자와 I-20의 세비스 넘버만 같으면, 기관이 달라도 상관없이) 입국할 수 있는지 궁금합니다.
아니면, 다른 방법이 있으면 알려주시면 감사드리겠습니다.
--
A. 이미 USC 석사로 F1 비자발급이 되셨으면 그 학교 시작일로 정확히 30일이내부터 입국이 가능합니다. 이때 입국을 하셔서 2-3주정도 들으시는게 좋을거 같아요.
원래 USC 입학허가서를 받고 그다음 얼바인 폴리에서 입학허가서를 받으신 후 폴리로 F1을 신청하고 입국 후 USC로 트랜스퍼하는게 정식 절차인데 이미 발급이 되셨으니 입국이 가능합니다. 이때 입국을 하셔서 2-3주정도 들으시는게 좋을거 같으세요.
