Foreign nationals with a non-immigrant visa may have the opportunity to change their status to another category while in the United States. Known as a Adjustment/Change of Status, this process can allow non-immigrant visa holders to change the original purpose of their visit. For example, if an individual arrived in the U.S. as a tourist, but wishes to become a student, they must submit a change of status application. Requests must also be filed with the USCIS before the authorized stay expires.
