This disqualifies you for the F1.
You are not allowed to have immigration intent with the F1.

You have many options:

A) Find a nice American girl and marry her.

B) Enter the green card lottery every year. (I think you have to be 18).

C) Do well in college. Go to a good graduate school. Get a Ph.D. and do
good research in your field.

D) Do well in college. Get an American company to hire you and sponsor you
for a green card.

E) Become a famous artist or musician.

F) Find a few million dollars and start or invest in a company in the US.

HAHAHA! It's certainly not much easier any more! Don't bother going to
Canada ... you'll never find work if the tales of many immigrants are
anything to go by!

What the **** do you care why he wants to be a citizen?
It's his choice! You moron don't have to know why.
Why do you want to know? Why do you even ask?
How can you call this personal wish a 'Hyped Dream'?
Who asked you for your opinion anyways?
Read the header - Help not opinion!!!
I just really hate ****ing asshole responses like that!

You want a green card. From there you can become eligble for
citizenship.

As a student (assuming your F1 status gets approved despite your
declared immigration intent here), you should choose a career path
towards a shortage occupation which will enable you to get labor
certification for a job with an H1B visa and eventually (hopefully) an
employer-sponsored for a green card. The annual green card lottery is
also an option. A bona fide marriage to a U.S. citizen at some point
in this process of developing your career also could make your dream
come true.

So, there are lots of ways. They will take time. They take money.
And they will take hard work. Getting your J1 visa got you started on
the path.
