Ok, after I submitted my application to BU online, they said to get an appointment in the embassy ASAP because those it could take up to three months to get one, at least here.
So I had to send all this to the University, then get my appointment (Ill copy what they said):
Subject: Your form has been submitted.

that you complete your application now so that we can send you the I-20
Certificate of Eligibility that you need to apply for your F-1 Student
Visa. We cannot send you the I-20 until we have received all of the
following items:

>- copies of the photo and personal data pages of your passport
>
>- Financial Declaration showing availability of funds to cover your
expenses while studying at CELOP (please see the "Dates & Fees" page of our
website to determine your program's expenses). You can download the
Financial Declaration form as a PDF from the following page on our website:
http://www.bu.edu/celop/forms/ft-broch/index.html or just let us know if
you would like one faxed to you.
>
>- a check, payable in US dollars for $185 ($60 application fee + $100
tuition deposit + $25 Federal Express mail service) made out to Boston
University/CELOP
>
>In addition to sending us these items, we also recommend that you
immediately contact the US Embassy near you to schedule an appointment for
your visa interview, which will be required by all Embassies by August 1,
2003, if not sooner.
So after I sent the money they were supposed to send my I20, and because my father had some contacts in the embassy he was able to get me an appointment very quickly, so I had to email BU several times asking what was up with my I20 because I was afraid it wouldnt get on time here
After I got the package, it came with some forms I had to hand over to the lady that made my interview. In the interview they asked me where I was going, for how long, what I was gonna do there, if I had been to the USA recently, if I had paid for the course already, I hadnt so the lady asked for financial evidence so she could make sure I could pay it.
When they send you the I20 thing they also send you a letter that you gotta show in immigration when you arrive, the letter says that youre admitted and that youre qualified to get an I20.
When you enter the USA with the I20 and youre gonna leave the country and then come back you have to get a signature that says youre approved to leave and come back, so be careful with that
