More details to this question:
I came to the US in 1 month before my 16th birthday with F1 student visa. I had graduated high school in the US. Plus, I never left the US since the date of arrival which was June 2009. Now, I am still on my F1 visa and trying to finish my B.S. degree. Is there any way I can apply for DACA with my circumstance?

You cannot apply for DACA if you hold an F status. In fact an F status is better than DACA. Your options for adjustment would be 1. family immigration (though spouse, for example). 2. Employment petition.
