Your visa is the stamp in your passport that was issued to you by a U.S. consulate
or embassy abroad. It is considered an entry document, so it needs to be valid when
you travel and plan to re-enter the United States. If it expires while you are studying
in the United States, and you have no plans to travel outside the United States, you
will still be in status.
