Huh? At your college, maybe. Nothing prevents a university to offer
such a degree as an undergrad degree.

Now what does a certificate program have to do with my question?
SW Engineering degrees could conceivable be available for undergrads
as well. I had asked you for clarification about that, but you
apprently didn't quite get that.

And what does your baloney about CS being part of a "School of Natural
and Applied Science" have to do with the original question???
You again show your cluelessness.
Get lost.

This happens not to be the case. There are many university certificate
programs which qualify for the issuance of I-20, and thus for their students
to hold F-1 status. The program must be a valid full-time academic program,
but need not lead to a degree.

See for example
http://www.uclaextension.edu/unex/de...0041014124805=.
UCLA has 40 certificate program which qualify for the issuance of Form I-20.

colleagues. It is up to him what risk he wants to take.

You should have done that yourself in the first place before coming
to me with your *useless* research result, forgetting that he's going
to be on F-1 and also wanted TA/RA.

I did say "usually" jsut to let him know that he should check in
School of Natural and Applied Science.

No point in wasting time on someone whose goal is not to understand
the nature of these programs, especially SWEN prgram but to argue,
using the word "conceivable".

I repeat again, CS is falls under Applied Science in most schools. SO
what you called *my baloney" has everything to do with original
question.

You are obviously not even able to read and understand your own words.
Let me quote it: "who is going to stop you if you get some part-time job"

That is suggesting it. Your try to weasel out of that is truly pathetic.

You are giving wrong and dangerous advice.
What is your agenda in doing so?

I know more about that than you obviously ever will.
You make the same mistake that you have done with your dishonest stuff
about the DV lottery as well: you see something at your college and
think it has to be the same way everywhere else.

I am repeating myself here, but you should stop answering questions when
you don't know anything about the topic at hand.

In most schools, CS is part of the Engineering School. You are spreading
baloney. A lot of colleges don't even have an "Applied Science" school.
You got a lot to learn...

Can an F-1 student in this kind of program apply for TA or RA, etc.?

No..I looked at a few universitites a while back and saw that it was
not strictly under Engineering schools.

I told him what I think would be useful to him. He can combine all
info he gets and sort it out just like all of use do.

You got a lot to learn, don't you?

You still don't understand. Do you think he will jump into the
river just because, liek you said, I suggest him to?

    >
    > That is suggesting it.
So? Is suggesting the same as forcing?

Your try to weasel out of that is truly pathetic.

Your picking on side issues is truly pathetic. The thread was about
his getting a F-1 visa to study in US and financing his education
until you turn it into a vandetta.

I didn't know that I had an agenda. What I do knwo t=is that peopel

agenda. Whatever it is, just keep it to yourself.

You seem to stick your finger in every pie. Most of the time you are wrong. I
find it mind boggling that you have a penchant to reply to virtually every post
on the newsgroup and not know what you are even talking about...you have been
corrected by virtually every single person who gives correct advice on this
group. One would hope you would have gotten a clue by now...
