Information on Student Visa
To obtain a student visa to study in the US, students must be enrolled in a SEVIS-approved school and program.
Once your enrollment in the program is confirmed, you will be issued a form called an I-20. With this form, you can apply for a student visa to the United States. Having an I-20 and being enrolled does not guarantee that you will get the visa.
One important component of the application is to demonstrate that you have the financial ability to pay for the course, books, housing, and living expenses during your planned stay in the US. You’ll need to upload documentation to prove that as part of our application.

SEVP Approval Status:
CR Languages is currently waiting for final approval from SEVP to issue the form I-20. We hope to be approved by the spring of 2025, but it may take longer. Please enter your email address to be notified when we are approved.
