Student Visa Status during Bar Exam
Wed Mar 29, 2006 04:30 AM
Hi all,

I am currently in the US as a F-1 student and I am planning to sit for the NY Bar Exam. However, the I-20 will expire in May after my LLM completion. Does anyone know what should I do in order to stay in the US until August for the Bar Exam? Many thanks.

Just don't leave the country until after your exam.

What country are you from? If you are from a visa waiver country you can leave the US when you graduate and return on a 90 day tourist visa.
