Hi.
I'd like to know about Visa and apartment.
I'll go to Carleton college as a Japanese teacher from this September to next June and live in the dormitory.
I can get a student Visa.
Can I rent public apartment with my Visa??
I have a wife but Flubright adviser told me that she can't live in my dormitory and I can't take my wife with me. Though I told him I will pay extra fee for her staying and take responsibility for her, he said "No".
This program is big chance for me, so I I want also her to have same this good experience as me.
If I can rent public apartment for her, I live in my dormitory and she lives in the apartment. If I do so, Flubright will not notice, I think.
Please help me if you know about Visa and apartment.

Sorry.
I'll participate in Flubright of FLTA program. I've never left from Japan, so I don't know abou Visa at all.
I don't know which Visa I can get.
I already read some documents about this program but they didn't say about Visa. Maybe, I can know about Visa after I submit some required documents.

I searched the website of Flubright. In the website, search by keyword (visa), then you get the visa information. (http://flta.fulbrightonline.org/thinking_prior_to_arrival.html) According to the website, you get a document needed to apply for a J-visa:
"IIE is responsible for issuing to all FLTA grantees the appropriate visa documentation (DS-2019), which will be used to apply for a J-1 entry visa. "
I hope you already know, but your wife cannot stay no longer than 90 days in the US without visas. I believe a spouse of a J-1 visa holder is entitled to a J-2 visa; however, you better ask the US Consulate and get the up-to-date info.
As for renting an apt, I think it's not easy for her to rent an apt where she can live alone. (In the US, she need "credit history" to rent an apt in general.) She will look for a residential hotel OR a roommate.
Good Luck!

Thank you for your information.
I read only given documents by Flubright. I should have checked the website. J-1 entry visa…it is a new word for me.
I know my wife can only 90 days without Visa. 90 days are enough for her
But she can't rent an apt without Visa, so I want to rent an apt insted of her. If I can do so, I will live in dormitory and she will live in the apt.
I will check about J-2 visa soon.
Thank you very much

J-1 Visa Information
To invite dependents (wife, husband, and/or children) to the U.S. after your arrival, you need to send them an I-20A/B or DS-2019 issued in your name so they may obtain their U.S. visas. Dependents of J-1 visa holders will receive J-2 visas. Requests for these documents must be made in the OIP (or to your sponsor for those on DS-2019's from other agencies). Proof of adequate financial support (as indicated on the Declaration and Certification of Finances) for the family's stay will be required in order to obtain an I-20A/B or DS-2019 from the OIP.
I found about J-1 entry Visa but I don't know I can rent an apt for my wife. And I was told by Flubright that I can't take my wife, so I worry Flubright may notice my secret plan if I send an I-20A/B or DS-2019 issued in my name and she receive J-2 Visa.
It is a very serious problem for me.

Isn't it "Fullbright"? not "Flubright"? We (Columbia Univ. in NYC) used to have many students/scholars with Fullbright scholarship.
If your advisor says "NO", then you shouldn't fight with the law. Besides,... you don't have a "good credit history in the States", do you? = it would be difficult for you to find an appartment. It's NOT because of the kind of Visa you have, BUT due to the lack of your good credit history in the States.
Sorry to say... but your wife can visit you 90days... She can chop this up to 3 X 30days, too.
You have received such a honorable scholarship, your wife should embrace it.

Oh, "Fulbright" is correct spelling. Sorry.
I know what you mean...
But to live in America is her dream. If I can't take her in this opportunity, I think it is very difficult for me to give her good opportunity like now. So I'll do my best until the deadline.
And I don't want to fight with them and their law.
My plan is to rent an apt for three or four months. This is not problem, I think.
If for four months, she must go back to Japan but she can come back to America soon.
I know J-2 Visa is very dangerous plan for me. I really want to partipate in this program and give good opportunity to her, so it is safe for her to come to America as a tourist as you said.
In this plan, it is problem for me whether I can rent an apt or not because she can't live in my dormitory. Fulbright said so. If I can't rent an apt, she must live in a residential hotel. It is big cost.
Therefore, I must know whether I can rent or not. But now I can't find any information about that.
I read about J-1 entry Visa on the web but discriptions I want is nothing.

As for renting an apartment, I had no trouble renting an apartment at all in my first year in the U.S. as a student (under F-1 visa). I had no credit history. I naturally had no job. All I had to do was submit an application. It took the landlord a couple of days to give me the green light.
