Dude H4 EAD unnappudu malli F1 enduku.. 

she can do masters on H4 EAD without changing visa ... if she is in the same place for about 1 year she can pay in-state tuition 

@budamkayabalraj

H4 EAD meeda not getting calls. India lo work experience( Prod Support) is not helping.

Checked with couple of emps, they are not willing to market.

now regarding F1.

My assumption : Initial gaa H4 meeda start chesi.. (In the last semester) she can convert to F1 to get the OPT & OPT extensions. Then apply for H1.

This is what I heard from other forums, correct me if I am wrong.

Thanks uncle.

doable but alaa chesina vallu evaru naku teliyadu.. 

H4 meeda MS start chesi F1 ki convert avvali anukuntey first Univeristy international office lo matladi confirm chesko.. lot of Univs wont agree to that..

F1 visa anedi admission ochinanduku aa univ lo chaduvukotaniki visa istharu.. if you are already studying and now want to convert, the univ has to allow for such procedure or else it gets difficult...

F1 anedi international students ki istharu... and tuition & fees is different.

H4 anedi Univ meeda not dependant so you can claim in-state tuition...

if you have plans to change visa status in middle its better to talk to International admissions office before you join any univ

agreed that is the best option..... last one semester mundu F1 convert ayithey chalu... see she wants to internships, then convert to F1 for summer semester/quarter to get CPT. 

converting to echh four ead is always an option.....
