Black student wants student exchange?

You got some good posts from the high rollers already, so let me put this all in one easy to grasp package. First, the law will only allow a student below the college level to attend up to 1 year of public school. If your exchange student from Spain already attended 11th grade in (presumably) a public school, then the 12th grade would have to be in a private school.

Tuition is anywhere from $15K to silly money, and any private school will gladly issue an I-20 to a student who attended 11th grade in the US and has decent grades. With the I-20, she will apply for an F-1 at the U.S. consulate in Barcelona. She will have to prove that she has the money to pay for tuition plus living expenses, and then it will all go smoothly.

I hope she did not attend public school without authorization on a visitor's visa (B2). If she did, she owes the state about $11,500 and the consulate will want her to pay that before they issue her an F-1 visa. It's highly likely that they would deny her the visa because she in this case violated US immigration law.

It would make her pretty much inadmissible for any non-immigrant visa for at least several years.

It is only possible to attend public school in the US for 1 year in a lifetime if you are a non-resident. She will have to complete all of the requirements for college in her own country, get accepted, get an I-20, get an F1, and then she can come back. But only for college.

She has to return home again after college.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
