Generally, students are there for either the semester or the year. You can be a "welcome" family, however, and if you do that, the student would stay with you for a month or so until another family decided to have the exchange student live with them for the remaining time. There shouldn't be a problem with traveling back and forth between parents so long as the school district is the same, but you will have to check with the program to make sure. You get to "choose" the exchange student: it gives you a short biography, their likes and dislikes, and their country. You later get to read a longer letter and see pictures to finalize your choice. Try looking at IES for getting in contact with someone who would be able to help you. ASSE is another choice. They're both reputable and are for high school students. Good luck!

Can an int'l student work off campus in USA ?
Can an int'l student work off campus in USA ?
So I started college in a small town in New Mexico this fall as an int'l student and job opportunities here on campus are extremely limited. I mean I have really tried but cant find a job on campus. So in this case can I seek permission to work off campus ? I really need a job since there is nothing to do here and I want to keep myself busy and earn some money so that I can go home and see my parents over the christmas break.

Generally not unless it's an internship as part of your course of study.
2 :
I think if you have a work visa? or just go to a place where you want to apply and ask, they'll probably tell you or maybe even hire you and pay under the table. I live in NM and know a few people who had the same problem.
3 :
You can legally work for a total of 12 months as an international student, which can either be while you attend school or after you graduate. Most kids like to use this for serious internships or for getting a foot in the door with an American company after they graduate in hopes the company will sponsor them to stay in the US. You need to apply and register any job and pay a fee when applying. Your school will have details. Otherwise just try Craig's list or local ads for pick up jobs like helping the elderly or babysitting.

The best public university in Mexico is UNAM. They have a center for foreign students who want to learn Spanish and teach it as a second language in their countries. This is the webpage: http://www.cepe.unam.mx/index.php?idioma=ing&tema= I think you can find everything you need there. Good luck!!

If you're here illegally and are less than 18, you can probably return to Mexico and apply for a student visa and not have the 10-year bar kick in. Wait to 18 though and you become responsible for your own actions. You probably can go to college if you're here illegally, but you'd probably need to pay full freight, i.e. out-of-state or foreign student tuition. Some states don't let illegal aliens attend college at all, 10 others such as California even provide in-state tuition although you have to have lived in the state 3 years and have graduated from high school there. (As California goes bankrupt, we may even see that benefit done away with.) If you entered without inspection, then there's no way to legalize without returning to your home country. Even marriage to an American won't do that. If you entered with inspection and it sounds like you may have, then marriage to a U.S. citizen would allow you to adjust status without leaving. Without legalizing, there will be no way for you to work legally even with a college degree or degrees.

hey, yo tambien soy de Mexico y vine a Estados Unidos a la universidad... this i what you have to do... look for the college you want to go to.. most colleges have an international student program... Call some colleges ... you have to go through a couple of procedures to be on a F-1 visa-student visa, some of them are... you have to be able to proof that your parents can afford it... they will ask for bank statements, to make sure you can live here on your own without having a job... However.. if you want to get a job you can... its called Optional Practical traning... you can apply as long a you've been attending college at least for a a year... OPT lasts 12 months.. i used mine after i graduated and it was the best decision.. because i was able to work full time and didn't have to worry about school. let me know if you have any questions you can email me by going to my profile and good luck

Speak to the international student office at the college where you have been accepted. You will have to pay out of state tuition rates. And after you graduate you cannot get a job with the degree as all jobs for college grads check immigration status. You will have to return to Mexico to find a job to use your degree. So I suggest studying something they can use in Mexico like engineering. No BA degrees. BS degree only.
4 :
The school will have to accept you and issue the i20 for immigration. But if your out of status that could get you deported. You need to see a lawyer mate
5 :
If you are here illegally,your only option is to leave and apply for a student visa to come back. You can only apply for a student visa from your home country. It cannot be done if you are already here. You cannot change status if you are living here illegally. If you chose to stay here illegally after you turn 18 1/2,you are making the decision as an adult and can be deported with a ban on returning when caught.
6 :
If you are an illegal alien you must return to your own country before you are 18 1/2 years old without penanty. You can then apply to come back legally without penalty. Otherwise, no college, no nothing for you. No American dream because you are an illegal alien.
