F-1 Life Cycle Posters

The F-1 Life Cycle posters presented above illustrate the three essential stages that a prospective F-1 student experiences during their journey in the U.S. These stages are broken down as follows:

1. First Poster (Prospective F-1 Students):
   This poster outlines the critical steps that prospective F-1 students must follow, from applying to a program at Texas A&M University to obtaining their F-1 visa and arriving in the U.S. It details the process from immigration check-in to settling into the academic environment.
2. Second Poster (Currently Enrolled F-1 Students):
   This poster highlights the potential risks to F-1 status while students are in the U.S. It also provides guidance on maintaining F-1 status, including areas of focus such as full-time enrollment, travel, on-campus employment, and authorized activities, with warnings about actions that can lead to status violations.
3. Third Poster (Graduating F-1 Students):
   This poster offers a concise guide on the steps graduating F-1 students must follow. It covers essential topics such as post-completion Optional Practical Training (OPT), extension of stay, and the responsibilities after graduation, including maintaining legal status and transitioning to further opportunities in the U.S.

These posters provide clear and accessible information, designed to help F-1 students at each critical stage of their academic journey, from admission to graduation and beyond.
