Urgent Answer needed! My visa is expiring

<p>Hello everyone, </p>

<p>I recently got a “conditional admission” from university of cleveland, ohio. They needed my GRE and ESL scores. I arrived here on a valid F-1 visa and passed the ESL exam, but I failed the GRE. Now the schools is saying they won’t give me an admission. </p>

<p>My question is, however, how long can I stay here in the US to look for other admission possibilities and stay here legally. how do I determine that ? when i’m no longer maintaining status on I-94. </p>

<p>Thank you,</p>

<p>What is the date on your I-94?</p>

<p>Best thing to do is check with immigration officials. Give them a call and explain your situation. Rules change periodically so best to get it from the official source. You may
also want to check with the school.</p>

<p>On the admission stamp or paper Form I-94, the U.S. immigration inspector records either a date or “D/S” (duration of status). If your admission stamp or paper Form I-94 contains a specific date, then that is the date by which you must leave the United States.

<p>I think you will be “out of status” once the school year begins and you are not enrolled. Is spring admission possible at the same school? It may be easier to get back “in status” at the same school. You should try to get an acceptable GRE score ASAP and enroll in the spring.</p>

<p>Thanks for your replies, wonderful people. I’ll check my I-94 and get back here.</p>

<p>I checked with SEVIS – it says my I-94 expiration date is 11/30/2014. </p>

<p>Am I still considered “out of status” ?</p>

<p>You should read the terms of your visa. If you are not complying with all the terms of your visa, you are “technically” out of status. The international student advisor at your college should be able to tell you how you can either avoid being considered out of status or get back in status.</p>

<p>If I get out of status, how long do I have to re-adjust? do you know? and how flexible is the US immigration system about that?</p>
