Form I-20
The Designated School Official (DSO) of the school that has accepted you can issue you one of two forms:
- The Form I-20, Certificate of Eligibility for Nonimmigrant (F-1) Student Status – For Academic and Language Students
- The Form I-20, Certificate of Eligibility for Nonimmigrant (M-1) Student Status – For Vocational Students
Except for the name of the form, the information on both forms is the same. A student and the student’s dependents must have a Form I-20 to apply for a student visa, to enter the United States, and to apply for benefits.
