Hi everyone, I am about to mail my AOS along with I130,I765 etc. and i would like to know if i have to wait until the whole process is over before being able to apply for college. Time is running out and its almost the deadline, so i need to apply sooner than later but im just not sure if i can apply while my applications are still processing and no decision has been made...PLZ HELP!!!

That depends on the rules of the school you are planning to apply for. Most college applications I have seen require applicants to have a social security number prior to applying. Also, since you are not a green card holder yet, it is also possible that you will be charged out-of-state tuition rates. Again, this is something you will need to find out from the school...in Florida, you can qualify for (lower) in-state tuition if you can prove you have been married to a Florida resident who has lived in Florida the past 12 months.

For schools in the USA, you need to have either a visa (F-1 or J-1) or green card. You can sure apply and you will still be accepted on the basis of the AOS filling, but understand that they will charge you out of state tuition till you have your GC. You can enroll as a AOS adjustee, would be charged out of state tuition, then if you get your GC before 2/3rds of the semester is over that means by Spring break on the safer side, the school will consider you as a instate person for that semester. Every school has a perosn who is in charge of the PR files (this is not the school DSO for international students mind you), talk to that person, and they should be able to help you. I am speaking from personal information

You can apply for school.. try going for instate.

you may qualify as instate ... since you'd be married and if you're spouse would be classified as in-state. This may vary from school to school so check it out.
