You may take classes in our program while you are in Indianapolis on a B-2 visitor visa. However, you can study part-time only, and your study must be incidental to your main purpose for being in the U.S. That means your main purpose should be to visit or be a tourist, and you are just taking classes for enrichment.
Visitors can start at the beginning of any session – we have sessions starting in January, March, May, June, August, and October each year.
Visitors should apply at least 2 weeks before the session starts.
You will have class every day, Monday through Friday, between the hours of 8:30 AM – 3:30 PM – even if you study part time, you will still need to attend classes in person each day.
Currently, we do not offer evening or weekend classes.
If you are in the United States as a visitor (B1/B2) and are interested in changing your status to F-1, we can help. Please contact us via email at inpie@iupui.edu for more information on how to apply for a change of status within the United States.
