Question

Courses offered in the IG and IIG terms are 8-weeks long and they are offered in an online format. Courses offered in the MAIN term are 16 weeks long and are considered in-seat courses. These in-seat courses require attendance to the weekend residency sessions. To maintain your status on an F-1 visa, what percentage of your courses must be taken in the MAIN term?

Answer 1

Answer:

We can conclude that is required that any person take more than 50% of the subjects in MAIN term (seat course) in order to satisfy the conditions to mantain the F-1 status.

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have that the online courses are completed in 8 weeks.

And by the other han the courses offered in the MAIN term are 16 weeks long

To maintain your status on an F-1 visa, what percentage of your courses must be taken in the MAIN term?

If we analyze the info provided we see that the ratio between the MAIN term and online courses is:

$\frac{16 hours}{8 hours}= 2$

Or can be expressed as $\frac{8 hours}{16 hours}=\frac{1}{2}$

We assume that the info provided is the requirement for this case.

So then we can conclude that is required that any person take more than 50% of the subjects in MAIN term (seat course) in order to satisfy the conditions to mantain the F-1 status.
