About Estudia en USA
What Estudia en USA is
Estudia en USA is an Alicante-based education consulting service that helps Spanish-speaking families arrange study in Knoxville, Tennessee. Its work covers enrollment at private high schools and colleges, F-1 student visa steps and housing, with local support in Knoxville during the program.
Founder Carmen Victoria created the service after guiding her own son from a U.S. private high school into college. The company says more than 120 Spanish-speaking families have used its services.
Main services
- Enrollment support: comparing private high schools and higher-education options such as the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, and Pellissippi State Community College and coordinating with admission offices.
- F-1 visa guidance: assistance with the I-20 process, consular-interview preparation and application follow-up; the U.S. government and school make the actual decisions.
- Housing search: residence halls, shared housing or limited space in a home arranged by the agency.
- Local orientation: airport pickup, city orientation and help with banking, phone service and shopping.
- Tutoring and guardianship: teacher meetings, monthly reports and an advertised 24-hour emergency contact.
Programs by stage
The high school phase is designed for students in grades 10–12 at a Knoxville private school and can include admission guidance, F-1 support and a supervised host-family program. The higher-education phase covers applications to UT Knoxville or Pellissippi State, essays, deadlines, transition planning and guidance on evaluating prior studies. Each school retains control of admission, credit and enrollment decisions.
Housing
The three advertised options are a campus residence hall for a student's first college year, shared housing with roommate search and lease review, and a limited-capacity family-style home with direct supervision.
Practical details
- High school applicants are generally ages 14–18; college applicants are generally over 17, with individual review.
- No fixed English level is advertised, although the company recommends reaching approximately A2–B1 before departure.
- The website states that 95% of students met their academic and personal objectives and that 98% of families would recommend the service; the profile does not provide an independent methodology for those figures.
- The website advertised admissions for 2026; current school and visa deadlines must be checked for the intended term.
