Can I convert my B-1/B-2 Visa to a Student Visa?

If you are in the U.S. on a B Visa, then you can apply for a COS (change of status), from a B-1/B-2 Visa to a F1/M1 Student Visa. Keep in mind to apply way before your Visa expires by filing the I-539 Form. Having a school certificate prior to entry in the U.S. will be considered enough evidence for the “preconceived student intent” which will help you convert.
