Study in the USA from Mexico

Every year, Mexican students join U.S. high schools on an F-1 visa to study, play sports, and experience American student life. XportEdu connects students and families in Mexico with accredited schools, vetted host families, and local coordinators across the United States.

How Mexican students study in the USA

  1. 1Find an accredited U.S. school that enrolls F-1 visa students — search by sport, subjects, location, and budget.
  2. 2Connect with a sending organization in Mexico that works with that school — or apply directly if it's a boarding school or arranges housing itself.
  3. 3Your sending organization (or the school) helps arrange your host family, local coordinator, and on-the-ground support.
  4. 4Receive your Form I-20, apply for your F-1 student visa, and begin your studies in the United States.

Studying in the USA from Mexico — FAQ

How do students from Mexico study in the USA on an F-1 visa?
A Mexican student chooses an SEVP-certified U.S. school, is accepted and issued a Form I-20, applies for an F-1 student visa at the U.S. embassy or consulate, and is matched with a host family and local coordinator before traveling to begin studies.
How much does it cost for a Mexican student to attend a U.S. high school?
Cost varies by school, region, and program. XportEdu shows the full net price for each placement — tuition plus host-family, coordinator, and program fees — so families in Mexico can compare the real all-in cost up front.
Do Mexican students need to speak English to study in the USA?
Each school sets its own English requirements. Many offer ESL or English-support programs for international students, and school profiles list any required English level so Mexican families can find the right fit.
Can a Mexican student live with an American host family?
Yes. Most F-1 high-school students from Mexico live with a screened American host family arranged and supervised by a local coordinator — a core part of the U.S. study-abroad experience.
