Hey all,

Could someone please tell me what's the type of VISA to get as a Canadian student going to a US dental school? I was doing some research on this subject and realized there were many kinds - J, F, H, HB1? etc. I'm getting a little confused so it's probably faster to ask someone who's been through this here 🙂.
If you have extra time and want to write me a quick walkthrough of the process it would be greatly appreciated.
Lastly, for some schools such as UCSF, my offer won't be final until July/Aug. I don't want to wait till then to apply for student VISA - it'd be too late wouldn't it? Please let me know.

Thank you so much!
