Hey guys! So, I was chatting with a couple of friends who are planning to study in the States, and we keep going back and forth on whether the J1 or F1 visa is better for us as grad students. One of my friends heard that the J1 might have better internship options, while another said the F1 has a clearer path to work post-grad.
Does anyone have experiences or insights on these two visas? What do you think ultimately helped or hindered your decision? Also, are there specific programs or universities that lean more toward one type of visa?
