F-1 student status will allow you to remain in the U.S. as long as you are a properly registered full-time student. To maintain full-time status you must take at least four courses per semester at the undergraduate level, and depending on your academic program, three or four courses per semester at the graduate level. F-1 status will allow you to work part-time in on-campus jobs and work in a "practical training" job directly related to your field of study for 12 months during or after the completion of your studies. Dependents of F-1 students will be permitted to join you in the U.S. provided you demonstrate that there are sufficient financial resources for their support. A spouse and dependent children of F-1 students hold F-2 status and may not work in the U.S.
