Hey everyone - so many questions!  Have you tried reading through any of the other discussions here on the SWT group to see if they can help you?  I would also check out j1visa.state.gov because there is so much information on j1 visa programs, the application process, and jobs right there on that site.  iojehomon, shandana, sheikh abu taleb, johnson - i hope that helped a little bit?  kerone - that is unfortunate that you were denied a visa for this summer, but you can always apply again next year when you'll be a student again.  good luck everyone!

What states are favorable and what jobs are more lucrative for the summer work and travel

Comment by Zezo Shakér Al Othman on March 30, 2012 at 11:31pm

It's been a pleasure to communicate with all these members who are really concerned about expanding their knowledge and experiences. I'm studying Mechatronics Engineering in Cairo " Robotics " and I would like to have a summer training in the states !! what do you  recommend me to do for further inquiries ? I'm Egyptian and I'm 20 years old.

Hey Walene,

You need to find a sponsor who is willing to provide you with a DS-2019 form. It looks like there is only one such sponsor for foreign medical students. Check out the Educational Commission for Foreign Medical Graduates. They are a sponsor that you can reach by telephone: 1 215 823 2121. Hope that helps!

Comment by walene on March 19, 2012 at 12:32pm
