Hi,
I am planning on taking a 1 year educational leave (break) from my company. During that time I plan on going through several online courses (example: edx, udemy, EF online English classes) while staying in the US for about 5 months (relax/ study/ travel).
My questions are:
1) Am I (German citizen) allowed to apply for a B2 visa and stay/travel in the US while taking online classes 20hrs a week for up to 6 months?
As far as I know this does not require applying for a student visa and I should be perfectly fine with the B2 visa.
2) When going for the interview, I would like to tell them as just explained above. Will they accept that? Or will they instantly tell me that I will require a student visa for that?
Anything I need to take care of?
Thanks and best regards
