To renew your Visa you'll have to go back to Nepal and re-apply again. The process is Exactly same as you did when you applied for your VISA first time in Nepal. Go to Nabil Bank , get the interview data and appear for interview. You may get it or You may not. If you ask me , what are the chances if you are already studying here ? The answer is, there's no chance or probability in getting VISA, it's either YES or NO. Good Luck.

If you are in US and maintaining your status then you don't have to renew your VISA. If you are out of country then you have to apply for the VISA

You don't need visa to stay here once u r here and have legal status. If you are studying, then u shud have ur valid I-20. As long as u have valid I-20 ur F1 visa has nothing to do with ur stay over here. Even if you change college or finish ur study and go to job, u don't need visa to stay here. Visa is just for entry to US.  If you plan to go out of US and come back, then u need visa. At that time its not the renewal of F1 visa, its the new application of F1 visa. You need to go back through the similar processes as u did for first time to get the visa.

Thanks all you guys for sharing your valuable info but I was curious about get it renewed from Canada or Mexico I heard some guys doing that ! Don't know if it's true though. I wanted to go visit Nepal and some other place which obvious needs visa so was trying to get renewed but reading all these comment none seems positive on doing it !!!
