On May 23rd a conference "How to stay in the US after your J1 visa?" took place. It was organized by French Morning.

Rodrigue Colaianni, J1 and F1 visas expert explained to students what options might be available to them to stay in the United States for 2 to 4 more years. Rodrique talked about Curricular practical training (CPT), optional practical training (OPT) and different types of visa students can apply for after their J1 internship.

Good news for French citizens about the duration of E visa is that Premium Processing will be available soon from June for change of status from J1 to F1 within only 30 days  (read about it more here).

Rodrigue Colaianni also presented a new MBA program which will allow to continue studying in the US.

Studying in the United States might be an interesting and useful option for many our Arts et Metiers students and alumni. That is why AFAM is launching a new Sequoia program to help our alumni to study in the United States.
