A F-1 student visa is given in the discretion of an American consular officer depending upon his or her perception of the applicant's bona fide nonimmigrant intent. You would have to convince the American consular officer that you still have ties and bonds to return to in your home country once your course of study is over. Also two of the questions on the DS-160 non-immigrant visa application form are whether you are married and whether you have close relatives, including a spouse, in the US. You should be sure of the answers before answering . In that way, you would avoid any possibility of committing a misrepresentation.
