I-20 says 2 years for assoc, I want to stay 4

[RedDog96 0]

I've got an I-20 for a community college in culinary arts. It only says 2 years on my I-20 but it says that after completion of my associates I'm eligible to transfer to a 4 year college. For my interview, should I mention that I plan on transferring to a 4 year college after I've got my associates because I want to get a bachelor's of nutrition after I've completed it. How does this work? Do I reapply for an I-20 while I'm at college to do the last 2 years? Or do I mention to the consulate officer that I want to stay 4 years?

your school is a community college, so they issue 2-year I20.

Once you transferred to a four year college, they will issue you another i20 for the length of your study.

you can tell the visa officer anything you want.

the validity of your visa is probably gonna be longer than your i20.depends on your nationality, what is your nationality?

Each application and visa are attached to a school and a program. they wont give you another student visa until you apply and be accepted by the 4 year school .

You apply for the F1 visa for the 4 years school when you have an I-20 from that school.

The US Embassy will not give you a visa for a school you have not been accepted to.
