Frequently Asked Questions About Studying in USA

Get answers to the most common questions about studying in the United States

What is the total cost of studying in the USA for international students?

The total cost varies significantly by program and university. Undergraduate programs range from $25,000-$55,000 per year, while graduate programs cost $30,000-$70,000 annually, including tuition and living expenses. However, with scholarships and assistantships, costs can be reduced by 50-80%.

How long does the F1 student visa process take?

The F1 visa process typically takes 2-4 weeks after your interview. However, we recommend starting the process 3-4 months before your intended start date to account for any delays. With Elite Overseas guidance, our students experience faster processing and 95% approval rates.

Can international students work while studying in the USA?

Yes, F1 students can work on-campus up to 20 hours per week during studies and full-time during breaks. After graduation, you can apply for OPT (Optional Practical Training) to work in your field of study for 12 months (36 months for STEM fields).

What are the English language requirements for US universities?

Most universities require IELTS (6.0-7.5), TOEFL (80-100), or Duolingo (105-125) scores. Requirements vary by program and university. Some universities offer conditional admission or English language programs for students who don't meet the minimum requirements.

How can I get scholarships to study in the USA?

Scholarships are available based on merit, need, field of study, and country of origin. Elite Overseas has helped students secure over $50M in scholarships. We provide expert guidance on scholarship applications, essays, and interviews to maximize your chances of funding.

What is the difference between Fall, Spring, and Summer intakes?

Fall intake (September) offers maximum program availability and scholarship opportunities. Spring intake (January) is a good alternative with 70% program availability. Summer intake (May) has limited programs but faster admission decisions. Fall is most popular among international students.

Can I get permanent residency (Green Card) after studying in the USA?

Yes, many international students transition to permanent residency through employment-based immigration. After completing OPT, you can apply for H1B visa, and eventually for a Green Card. STEM graduates have better chances due to extended OPT periods and higher demand in the job market.
