Every Foreign Student Needs a Visa to Enter U.S.

Every foreign student who has been accepted to study in this country must have a legal document called a visa from the United States government. A visa permits a foreign citizen to travel to the United States and request permission to enter the country.  The rules for getting a visa can be found on the State Department Web site.  The address is unitedstatesvisas.gov.  United States visas is all one word.  Another State Department Web site for students from other countries is educationusa.gov.
