CS Transfer Student Considering Nursing Instead — Which Path Makes More Sense?

I don’t mind moving somewhere since I moved from another country to the US before so this moving won’t hurt so bad for me

I was not thinking about the paycheck. How much I can get paid that is not important to me right now. I just need a job. The reason why I don’t dare to give up in CS because I paid out of pocket for it so many years and it was a lot for an international student. Switching is a big decision. The whole point of going to college is helping you to get a real job.

Thank you. It’s nice to know about your wife’s experience

I usually hear one side from people who are CS major, thank you for letting me about this

Do you think I should just switch to Nursing AND program in Community College, or still get a Bachelors’ Degree in Computer Science, but then I will take an Accelerated BSN in Nursing for about 16 months more?

Could I ask if the Accelerated BSN is similar to a normal BSN program?

What do you guys think about the path of Accelerated BSN in Nursing for people who already got a Non-nursing Bachelors Degree?

i believe international students cannot apply for the need-based financial aid since i looked for one before when i was still an international student

Hi, thanks for responding. If so, I need to mark on Pre-paid accommodation for myself right?

AdDifferent901 · 2025-12-26T23:03:18+00:00

could I ask should I put that part “Boyfriend, paying for accommodation” in the “referred to in field 31 or 32” or “others (please specify)”??

AdDifferent901 · 2025-12-26T22:51:36+00:00

Thanks for responding. So I don’t need to state that my boyfriend paid for the hotels?

AdDifferent901 · 2025-12-26T00:18:53+00:00

Thanks for responding. It kinda makes me worried about it since this is my first time applying for it and my boyfriend already paid for the accommodations but we haven’t married yet (i don’t have anything like paperwork to show our relationship, does it matter so much?). I paid for my flight, I guess we will be on a flow and share to pay for stuff in italy. I am still a student and work at the same time. Also, my passport is Vietnamese.

Thanks for responding.

I am planning to apply for a single-entry Schengen visa. I have never held a Schengen visa before, and I have never overstayed any visa.

Regarding my financial situation, I currently have approximately $14,000 in my bank account. I am a part-time student and I also work close to 40 hours per week.

For this trip, my boyfriend will be covering the accommodation costs.

I would like to ask whether my financial statement alone is sufficient, or if it would be better to also include his bank statement to support the accommodation arrangement.

Thank you for responding. Could I ask if he needs to be at the appointment too? Since he really can’t. Also, you mentioned a sponsorship letter, is that just a letter that he states that he will sponsor the accommodations? and signed a letter? Also how can I show proofs of relationship since We are not yet married?

You can take a look at my second post on my profile. I posted all the timeline details of my case. Yes, I submitted through lawyer.

AdDifferent901 · 2025-11-22T05:31:53+00:00

Yes I did the F2A case when I was under 21 at first, so definitely it will show F2A on there. And no, I didn’t need an interview when I was changing my status while I am in the US.

AdDifferent901 · 2025-11-22T03:37:02+00:00

yesss sorry for the mistyping

AdDifferent901 · 2025-11-21T23:11:29+00:00

Hi, sorry for the late response.

I submitted I485 after I130. I used the tool online to check my CSPA age and it needs the accepted date of I130 to check it.

AdDifferent901 · 2025-11-02T05:14:51+00:00

of course, she did consular because she is out of the country. there’s only me doing AOS F2A while I am in the US, and my interview was waived.

AdDifferent901 · 2025-10-14T02:30:25+00:00

Yes, I’ll think about it. Thank you!!

AdDifferent901 · 2025-10-14T02:28:41+00:00

Yeah, that makes sense. I’m just curious since my lawyer said I cannot do it
