Petitioning an R1 visa to permanent resident

Hi. My mom filed a petition for me and it has been recently approved. It is unclear to us what this means: Parent of US Citizen, 201 (b) INA. I'm here in the US with an expired R1 visa but my I-94 is until 2018. We would like to know how long will be the process for us and if my status would change into a student visa since the school that I will be enrolling to said that they have to change my status, will it affect the ongoing petition? I'm over 21 by the way.
 
That is according to I-797 form they sent us. They got the petitioner and beneficiary right though. What should be my case then? Should I inform USCIS?
