I am going to be attending graduate school in London in the fall. The program does not start until October, so I can not get my student visa before July. I am planning on coming over in June for 2 months, then coming back to the States for a month and getting the student visa. Since I have read so many horror stories of people getting turned away should I get my fiance visa first? But then can I change that to a student visa? The problem is that we aren't getting married until January of 2007, so if I get a fiance visa for June don't I have to get married within 6 months?
Basically, can I get a fiance visa to get over there and get that changed to a student visa?
