I came to Hawaii a week ago with the goal of learning English through the Nice program at UH.
I managed to get two months off and applied to the school and was told to get a student visa, which I did as instructed.
I went to the school for 2 days, but I just can't get used to the atmosphere of the school. I don't like the content of the lessons.
I have asked about transferring to a language school in Waikiki, but since the I-20 is issued by UH, the school I want to go to ( does not require a student visa and cannot be the source of the I-20 ) I think I need to change my visa status in order to transfer to
. I think you need to change your visa status to transfer to a different school.
Please advise if anyone knows how a person who entered on a student visa can cancel the student visa and stay for less than 2 months.

There are many Japanese people in Hawaii.
If you want to learn English for a short time ! then why not take the plunge and apply to a school on the mainland ?
This is just my opinion, so of course if you decide to go to UH, good luck!

Dear Language
Thank you for your comment. I would like to experience a full-fledged study abroad program over a long period of time if possible, but it is difficult to take long vacations when you are a working adult. However, I will not give up my dream and will do my best.
Thank you for your advice.

I am sure that when UH's face-to-face classes resume, many students will be back on campus,
so I am sure that you will spend more time immersed in English.
I am sure that you will be able to communicate with UH staff in English.
In my experience, solving problems in English is a good way to improve your English for living. I hope you enjoy your 2 months in and out of UH.

Dear Koji
Thank you for your comment.
Yes, I try to speak English as much as possible outside of class.
In addition to UH, I have decided to take private lessons in the evening at an English school in Waikiki.
I will do my best to show my results at work after I return home.
Thank you for your advice.
