Dieses Visum erlaubt es den Studierenden als Vollzeitstudent an einer amerikanischen Universit\u00e4t eingeschrieben zu sein sowie vor Ort zu leben. Der Zeitraum des Visums ist abh\u00e4ngig von der L\u00e4nge des Studiums im Ausland. Durch das innovative \u201eEin-Kurs-pro-Monat-System\u201c an der<a title=\"Visum USA: National University\" href=\"\/studieren-in-den-usa\/\"> National University<\/a> wird das Visum auch dementsprechend flexibel dem Zeitraum des Auslandsstudiums angepasst. In der Regel haben Studenten zus\u00e4tzlich noch eine sogenannte \u201egrace period\u201c, in der sie vor bzw. nach ihrem Studium noch in den USA verbleiben k\u00f6nnen. Diese \u201egrace period\u201c bel\u00e4uft sich auf 30 Tage vor Studienbeginn und 60 Tage nach Studienende, die oftmals zum Reisen verwendet werden.<\/p><h2 class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">Visum USA - Wie bewerbe ich mich?<\/h2><p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">Sobald die Bewerbungsunterlagen vollst\u00e4ndig eingereicht und die Evaluierung der National University abgeschlossen ist, erhalten die Studenten das sogenannte I-20 postalisch zugeschickt. Dieses einwanderungsrelevante Dokument dient als offizielle Zusage f\u00fcr einen Studienplatz und wird anschlie\u00dfend bei der amerikanischen Botschaft zur Beantragung des Visums vorgelegt. Die offizielle Beantragung sowie Bezahlung des Visums erfolgt zun\u00e4chst eigenst\u00e4ndig online durch die Studenten und wird mit einem Interview auf einer der drei amerikanischen Botschaften in Deutschland (Frankfurt, M\u00fcnchen, Berlin) abgeschlossen.<\/p><p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">Das Online-Verfahren beinhaltet die \u00fcblichen einwanderungsrelevanten Fragen, sowie Pers\u00f6nliche Daten, fr\u00fchere Reise ins Ausland, Zweck und Anschrift im Ausland, geplante R\u00fcckreise etc. und erfordert au\u00dferdem im selben Schritt bereits die Zahlung der Visumsgeb\u00fchren. Hierbei muss zuerst ein sogenanntes DS-160 Formular beantragt und erstellt werden, welches ben\u00f6tigt wird um den eigentlichen Antrag des Visums zu stellen. Nach diesem Online-Verfahren werden die Studenten gebeten sich einen Termin auf der ihnen am n\u00e4chsten gelegenen amerikanischen Botschaft zu vereinbaren. Nach Durchsicht aller Unterlagen, der Vorlage des I-20 und einem kurzen Interview erhalten die Studierenden dann ihr Visum USA postalisch von der Botschaft.<\/p><p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>WICHTIG!<\/strong> Dieses F-1 Visum USA berechtigt deren Tr\u00e4ger ausschlie\u00dflich zum Studieren in den USA, jedoch ist es hierbei nicht m\u00f6glich neben dem Studium zu arbeiten oder ein bezahltes Praktikum zu machen.<\/p><p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">Weitere Fragen zum Thema Visum USA oder zum Studium an der National University?
