    visas :

    Once you have been accepted to a program of study in the United States, you should obtain a student visa. The Embassy of the United States processes visa applications each working day, Monday through Friday (please keep in mind the visa section is closed on American and Mexican holidays). You should call to make an appointment, with your passport in hand, to the telephone numbers listed in "How to apply"; this service is available from 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. Monday through Friday, and from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. Saturdays, Sundays and holidays.

    Before coming to the Embassy on your appointment date, all applicants for F, J or M visas should have CONFIRMATION from the sponsoring institutions (school, program exchange site) that your name, as well as those of your relatives if applicable, have been added electronically to the SEVIS (Student and Exchange Visitor Information System), and confirms your acceptance in the school or exchange program. Neither student nor exchange visas can be issued until your data appears in the mentioned SEVIS system, thus, applicants should contact their respective sponsoring institutions.

    NEW PAYMENT: F-1, M-1, and the majority of J-1 applicants, to whom I-20 or DS-2019 forms have been issued after September 1, 2004, should make an additional payment of $100 U.S. for SEVIS fees. This payment should be paid directly to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). The payment should be made prior to the issuance of the visa. The fastest method to make this payment is by credit card or through the web site www.FMJfee.com designed by the DHS for this purpose. More information from DHS

    There are different types of visas depending on the duration of the program, your level, and the source of program finances, etc. In general, the following documents are required to apply for a student visa:

    Form I-20 (this form is compulsory and it is only SENT to the student by the educational institutions accredited in the United States, and it is the only evidence of having been accepted in a program.) NOTE: having the required form I-20 does not guarantee visa issuance.

    Evidence of means to pay for the costs of the program – depending on the case, this proof will consist of documentation from the institution indicating that the program has been paid for, bank accounts, letters from sponsors or the applicant’s parents, etc.

    Proof of payment of the SEVIS fee as explained above.

    YOU SHOULD ALSO:

    Bring the receipt from bank BANAMEX indicating that you have paid the processing fee of $1,150.00 pesos (adjusted according to the exchange rate).

    Bring your Mexican passport with a minimum validity of six months.

    Fill out and print the visa application on the Internet.

    Fill out and print Form DS-158 for students, preferably on the Internet.

    If you are male between 16 and 45 years of age, fill out and print the supplementary application, preferably on the Internet.

    You may also be required to bring proof of your English language proficiency, grades from previous educational institutions, bank statements, recommendation letters, or any other documents.

    The program or school you wish to attend should offer detailed information; you may wish to contact the Center for Educational Counseling for additional information.

    During the official vacation periods, appointments for these visas are usually scheduled for TWO WEEKS after you make the call, and approved student visas are delivered to the applicant BETWEEN A WEEK AND 10 DAYS AFTER the appointment date. Please make all the necessary arrangements for your visa well before your scheduled travel date.

    pick on that is closest to you in this by cliking on any city in Mexico:

    and then :

    In most countries, first time student visa applicants are required to appear for an in-person interview. However, each embassy and consulate sets its own interview policies and procedures regarding student visas. Students should consult Embassy web sites or call for specific application instructions.

    Keep in mind that June, July, and August are the busiest months in most consular sections, and interview appointments are the most difficult to get during that period. Students need to plan ahead to avoid having to make repeat visits to the Embassy. To the extent possible, students should bring the documents suggested below, as well as any other documents that might help establish their ties to the local community.

    Changes introduced shortly after September 11, 2001 involve extensive and ongoing review of visa issuing practices as they relate to our national security. It is important to apply for your visa well in advance of your travel departure date.

    When Do I Need to Apply for My Student Visa?

    Students are encouraged to apply for their visa early to provide ample time for visa processing. Students may apply for their visa as soon as they are prepared to do so.

    The consular officer may need to get special clearances depending on the course of study and nationality of the student. This can take some additional time. For more information on applicants who may have additional processing requirements see Special Processing Requirements.

    Students should note that Embassies and Consulates are able to issue your student visa 120 days or less, in advance of the course of study registration date. If you apply for your visa more than 120 days prior to your start date or registration date as provided on the Form I-20, the Embassy or Consulate will hold your application until it is able to issue the visa. Consular officials will use that extra time to accomplish any of the necessary special clearances or other processes that may be required.

    Students are advised of the Department of Homeland Security regulation which requires that all initial or beginning students enter the U.S. 30 days or less in advance of the course of study start/report date as shown on the Form I-20. Please consider this date carefully when making travel plans to the U.S.

    A student who wants an earlier entry into the U.S. (more than 30 days prior to the course start date), must qualify for, and obtain a visitor visa. A prospective student notation will be shown on his/her visitor visa and the traveler will need to make the intent to study clear to the U.S. immigration inspector at port of entry. Before beginning any studies, he or she must obtain a change of classification, filing Form I-539, Application for Change of Nonimmigrant Status, and also submit the required Form I-20 to the Department of Homeland Security office where the application is made. Please be aware that there is an additional fee of $140 for this process, and that one may not begin studies until the change of classification is approved.
