TLDR : Answer Summary

Yes, you can apply for an education visa (ED visa) from the United States, provided you have the correct paperwork from your school or university. However, it is important to note that approval is typically for established courses, and you can only obtain this visa for actual university study when applying from outside of Thailand.

You can only get an ED visa approved for actual university study applying from outside Thailand at this time.

it is pretty famous, but still you can only apply for the ED visa, and they supply the documents needed, after you get here.
