I hold an MA TESL, and am going to work for the language center of a university.

Can I get an E-1 visa?

It is highly unlikely... you are a teacher of a foreign language working in a language institute attached to a university (E2), not a visiting professor (E1) working on staff in the university.

Even if you are teaching in the regular university, immigration probably won't give you one. They even deny teachers at the top unis.

Thanks for your replies.

I didn't think it was likely, but I recently read that the visa process for an E-1 is significantly easier so I figured it was worth asking.
