Au Pair Visa
Through the Au Pair program, participants and host families take part in a mutually rewarding, intercultural opportunity. Participants can continue their education while experiencing everyday life with an American family, and hosts receive reliable and responsible childcare from individuals who become part of the family.
School credit: Complete at least six hours of academic credit or equivalent in formal educational settings at an accredited US post-secondary educational institution.
F-2 Visa
F-2 dependents can engage in study at an SEVP-certified school in the United States as long as they are enrolled in less than a full course of study.
H 4 Visa
H-4 dependents may study full-time or part-time in the US. The duration of their stay is dependent on their age (children "age out" when they turn 21 years old) and the H-1B scholar's maintenance of status and authorized period of stay.
