<p>OK guys, I’m quitting the research because my brain has frozen up from trying to make sense of the USCIS website. Here is more stuff I’ve found out:</p>
<p>Students with TPS (Temporary Protected Status) can be eligible for in-state tuition depending on the state of residence. </p>
<p>Students with an H-4 don’t need to change visa status in order to study in the US, but they aren’t eligible for work authorizations like holders of F-1, M-1, and J-1 visas.</p>
<p>And there are waaaaay more visa categories out there than I had thought there were!</p>
