Hi all,
Hope things are going on well in here . As several of you may know, I had my AOS interview on 12th September and was approved with the FBI name-check pending. I would really appreciate it if someone could shed light in regards to my upcoming situation.
I am currently working with an EAD (obtained through the AOS process) and am planning to enroll in a Ph.D. program next Fall. I spoke to the Graduate Admissions office of one the universities that I plan to apply to and the officer told me that I have to apply under a F-1 visa as long as I do not have my LPR status and green-card in hand. My question is has anyone else gone through a similar situation? I am hoping that me applying to attend graduate school does not impact my AOS in any way. Please share your inputs and experiences.
