First off im happy that your are trying to come here legally via hard work and patience. I hope you get your visa. I think you should goto the nearest American embassy and register their, I think. Im not so sure, I wish i knew more so I could tell you what to do.
2 :
A student visa for what country, the US? And you're 15? Where are your parents? Student Visas as far as I know are for college.
3 :
first, you can only attend a public high school for one year on a student visa. and that school would have to be willing to accept you, issue you an I-20 student form and register you in the SEVIS database before you could even apply for the visa. plus, you'd have to pay tuition to attend. you can attend a private school for your entire high school time, but again you'd need the student form etc to apply for the visa. many public schools don't feel like doing all the paperwork involved, so you need to talk to them first before doing anything else.

I want to know what is Obama & Janet going to about this Texas college student killed in Mexico?
I want to know what is Obama & Janet going to about this Texas college student killed in Mexico?
Can we file lawsuits, hold protests, demand Obama provide the family with free lawyers as is the case when Mexico comes after someone here. They want $$$$$ for their loss and does it work both ways ? Or will Obama look the other way ? BROWNSVILLE, Texas — Officials say a south Texas college student has been shot and killed in Mexico. University of Texas at Brownsville spokeswoman Amy Lynch said 19-year-old freshman Jonathan William Torres was killed Wednesday in Matamoros. Lynch tells The Brownsville Herald that the university was trying to get more information from the U.S. Consulate in Matamoros, across the U.S.-Mexico border from Brownsville. Officials say it is unknown whether the death was connected to ongoing drug war violence in Mexico. http://www.statesman.com/news/texas/officials-texas-college-student-killed-in-mexico-957170.html Another case will Mexico pay this family money ? Why do Mexican men go after our children ? This happens why to often with illegals what are supporters doing to stop it ? Are they having work shops ? What is the church saying as well ? http://www.nhregister.com/articles/2010/10/07/blotter/doc4cae0ee069c68463566715.txt

Likely they will do exactly nothing,why would they since they could care less about Americans. If he does anything,he might apologize for the effect one of our citizens getting killed had on their already unbelievable murder rate in Mexico. Seriously,WHY IN THE HELL is ANYONE traveling to the crime-ridden,corrupt cesspool? RWE
2 :
I hope they do something. Not only do they come over here illegally and rape and murder, but now when we go over there, they do the same thing.
3 :
Nothing. It is what they want.
4 :
Same thing they did about the Rancher that got killed and robbed. Nothing. They are just concentrating on votes for now. Then they will still do nothing. This is why we better have a changing of the gaurd and get rid of the Obama, Pelosi, Reid, Rangles, and Waters types that just want to get rich from the taxpayers.
5 :
All Obama cares about is sugar coating the fact his aunt is an illegal immigrant who STOLE $$$$$!

Stay away from border towns. If you really want to experience Mexican culture, you have to travel to the interior sections of Mexico. Border towns are well known for their inhospitality, rudeness, and among other things, crime.
2 :
You should go to rosarito, its in tijuana....lots of fresh seafood, clubs and shopping....its family friendly also..
3 :
Xel-Ha in Riviera Maya. It's a historical site, where the Mayan Indians used to Inhabit. You can even swim with dolphins!
4 :
i dont know how far down your going so heres a map the farther down you go the better it gets but its all good have fun wished i was going http://www.mexfish.com/baja/baja/bajamp/bajamap.htm
5 :
i live in veracruz and it is great. very mexicana. very safe. its a little touristy but not for so much for americans (like cancun or puerta vallarta)...this is where mexicans vacation
6 :
It depends on what you want...If you want just another touristy americanized spot, then go to Cancun, Hermosillo, or some other popular place like that. I had a blast in Cancun last time I went. Xel-ha is awesome, but I prefer more traditional mexican places such as Guadalajara. It's the most traditional mexican place in Mexico. And not so touristy. Puerto Vallarta is AWESOME too!
7 :
The best places you should go Is Tampico,Guadalajara,San miguel de Allende,San Luis.Those places r the best most tourists go there and im one of them!!!(Tampico has a beautiful beach!!!)
8 :
If you are coming to San Diego, in don have much time, you can drive or even take the trolley to the border and cross to Tijuana. There its true that in some places theres its crime, but it is like in every big city of the world, if you stay in the tourist places or plazas, you should not have any problems, if you like shopping you can go to the revolution ave, or Mercado de artesanias in downtown Tijuana, you can find a lot of Mexican Art crafts, also you can always ask for a lower price and a better deal, downtown Tijuana its at 3 minutes from the border, you can take a take will charge you about 3 USD, also there are plenty of restaurants at a very reasonable price. If you like to go were the local people go, you can go to Plaza Rio, also very close to the border, in that plaza all the prices are tag and final, there are Clothes, shoes, Jewelry, perfumes, etc... and then If you like something more cultural, threes the CECUT, ( Centro Cultural Tijuana ) has a big museum and several paint and sculptures expositions. This its just in Tijuana, if you are coming just for 3 day, w/ this its pleanty enough. Also yo can go south of Tijuana To Rosarito ( 20 minutes from Tijuana) La Ruta del Vino ( Wine Route, its between ensenada and Tecata, like 1.5 Hrs from Tijuana, or Ensenada 1 hour from Tijuana. You can spend one day at each location.

The Tlatelolco Massacre, also known as The Night of Tlatelolco (from a book title by the Mexican writer Elena Poniatowska), took place on the afternoon and night of October 2, 1968, in the Plaza de las Tres Culturas in the Tlatelolco section of Mexico City, ten days before the 1968 Summer Olympics celebrations in Mexico City, when police and military shot student demonstrators. The death toll remains controversial: some estimates place the number of deaths in the thousands, but most sources report between 200 and 300 deaths. The exact number of people who were arrested is also controversial. Rojo amanecer (1989), directed by Jorge Fons, is a Spanish-language film about the event. It focuses on the day of a middle-class family living in one of the apartment buildings surrounding the Plaza de Tlatelolco and is based on testimonials from witnesses and victims. It starred Héctor Bonilla, MarÃa Rojo, the Bichir Brothers, Eduardo Palomo and others. A new film, Tlatelolco: Mexico 68, currently in production, is due out in 2009. This version focuses on an American journalist in Mexico for the Olympics who gets caught up in the events of October 2, 1968. Richard Dindo, a documentary film maker, has made Ni olvido, ni perdón (2004) which includes contemporary interviews with witnesses and participants as well as footage from the time.

Of course they should be allowed to. However, if they are experiencing flu symptoms they should not attend. The students should be allowed to graduate, but be monitored.
2 :
Absolutely, unless they are infected. This whole thing is overblown.
3 :
How ridiculous....daily I am amazed at how reactionary and silly people can be....If you really want to stay safe...Walk everywhere...Car accidents kill 1.2 million EVERY YEAR.....
4 :
No they shouldn't. That's being paranod on the part of the University and so unfair to the students. It's already starting to spread from state to state and at this point, even though it originated in Mexico, Mexico is now out of the picture now. It's every counties problem now, even in Europe. If the college students start getting sick, they should be tested and treated. Those with no symptoms just be left alone and allowed to live life as they naturally would.

Information about student exchange at Mexico or Spain?
O.K I'm 16 years old and I'm very interested in doing student exchange I'm in 11th grade in high school and I would like to know if someone who has been in student exchange would give me very good details about what do i need to do like the requirements,costs,etc. I would like to go to Mexico or Spain those are my two choices.And to see where I need to go in my school for example if I need to go to my counselors or another department at my school, and if i go to Mexico, or Spain school I would like to know if i'll get my credits transferred to my school here at the United States or if l would loose them.Every single detail that you have will be very good.

Both my nephew and niece were in Mexico on Spanish language exchange programs but just for the summer. Yes they got credit. You didn't mention your Spanish skills but most decent language programs should know about exchange programs
2 :
The ITESM (Tec de Monterrey) has a "prepa internacional" (international high school)... certain campuses only, but worth looking into. Also, there are many language schools throughout Mexico, expecially in Cuernavaca. You didn't say how your Spanish is... if you're fluent you could probably go to a regular high school there (I'm not 100% sure but you should look into it). If you haven't learned Spanish, then going to an immersion school over the summer or holidays is a great idea. I would contact the school in Mexico or Spain directly, as well as speak to y our guidance counselor. Good luck! I hope this helps. I wish I had studied abroad when I was in high school. I finally got the chance in college and it was one of the best decisions I ever made.

First off, you don't get to choose where you go... they pick for you. Second off, 4 weeks is just not enough to learn Spanish or to get a real taste of the culture and enjoy it. I would recommend a year program and don't worry, it may seem expensive but if you get a job you can save up for it in no time. As for Mexico or Spain.... I would goto Spain. I have been to Mexico and it is not the best place to live in and it is hot. Spain is a better place to live.
