I hope that this the place for this questions and please forgive if it is not. I will be getting an O-A visa when thing settle down. I would like to also attend language school and maybe go to university for some classes. I would like to know if this is possible without giving up my O-A visa. I was also looking at the Elite visa. Thanks in advance for any help.

Answer summary

The O-A visa allows for studying without the need to give it up, as confirmed by a community member. Even with an Elite visa, attending educational institutions is permissible.

I think you're a while away from the country opening up to allow retirees in the country BUT just so you know there is no problem studying on an O-A visa or even on an Elite visa, none at all.
