Meet Renata Teles: she survived the F-1 journey, now she guides yours.

Ampara was born from a real story. Renata came to the U.S. as an international student, faced the fear and the paperwork alone, and built the company she wished had existed.

Academic consulting, not legal advice. Immigration legal work is done by our partner law firm.

"I know how it feels, because I lived it."

I lived the F-1 experience myself. I needed support and couldn't find it, so I learned the process, specialized in it and built the solutions I was missing. When I arrived as an international student, I had questions nobody answered clearly. Which school? Which rules? What happens if something goes wrong? I learned the hard way. Ampara exists so you don't have to. We're not just consultants. We're people who walked this road, working with licensed attorneys who know the law.

Renata Teles · Founding Partner & Commercial Director

Our essence

An international consultancy with a Latin heart.

Ampara was born from the real experience of someone who lived the process of studying in the United States. From challenges to achievements, we understand every step of the journey, and that is exactly what led us to build a strategic structure to guide other students.

Today we are an international consultancy that connects Latin American talent to the best academic opportunities in the USA. We work with F-1 students, school transfers, change of status from B-1/B-2 to F-1 and reinstatement.

Based in Rome, Georgia, we operate in the heart of the United States, following SEVIS, SEVP and DHS rules, with service that puts the student at the center of everything.

More than processes, we deliver direction.
More than support, we deliver security.
More than guidance, we deliver a warm welcome.

We were born from the real experience of those who lived this journey. We understand every step, because we have been there.
