Having to ask DHS for the authorization to continue your PhD after 4 years. Crazy.
It’s already far from guaranteed to be allowed to stay after a PhD. Now you won’t even know if you’ll be allowed to finish.
- swebs 6y ago4 years doesn't sound bad to me. I studied for a MS in Finland and you have to renew your student visa every year.

- swebs 6y agoGetting the first visa was pretty difficult and required a lot of paperwork. The renewal process was much easier as you just had to prove your studies are progressing on time and that you have a source of income and private healthcare (you're not eligible for public healthcare). It takes a few months for them to process the decision, which makes it pretty stressful.
