How to get a student Visa?
I am currently residing in the USA illegally since I was brought by my parents as a very young child and I'm attending a county college. I wanted to know if it was possible to return to Mexico and apply for a student visa since I have already been accepted into the college or if I might be able to do it from here. Thanks for any information or personal experience on the subject, it's very much appreciated!

You can't do it from here because you are illegally in the USA. If you leave the USA you'll face a 10 year ban on returning due to the fact that you lived in the USA more than a year as an illegal alien.

If you are under 18.5 you may just be able to do that you must return to you home country and apply from there

You can't get a student visa while you are here illegally,you have to apply from Mexico. If you have lived here illegally as an adult,you will get a 10 year ban when you apply for a visa. Once you turned 18,your illegal status became your responsibility,you can no longer use your parents as an excuse for living here illegally. Once your ban is over and you can prove you are able to pay international student tuition,you may be able to come back.

assuming you're over 18 1/2 Yak Rider is right. even if you're under that, Dave is probably wrong. if you've been living in the US most of your life, your chances of getting a student visa back home in Mexico are pretty poor. You don't really have any ties to Mexico at this point and you'll almost certainly be turned down for a student visa or a tourist visa.
