H4 to F1 conversion

[aslonikar]

Hello,
I have completed 1 semester on H4 and have 2 more to go. I am planning to convert to F1 visa by traveling to India just before my last semester (in Dec 21) as it is complicated to find visa slots right now. What are the odds of approval. Does anyone have similar experience?

Hi,
One of my surrounding had same situation. She even filed F1 change of status too. Last week, she went to India and got visa stamped on F1. It was successful. I suggest to keep checking the slots to book the appointment and proceed ahead.
Thanks
