@navyanavy094 , 

(a) Which country are you from ?

(b)  Was this a status adjustment  from H-4 to F-1 or did you leave the country and re-entered with F-1 ?

(c) Are you married  and if so to whom  ( NRA, Resident for Tax purposes , GreenCard or what  ) ?

(d) When did you enter with H-4 ?

 

From your answers  one should be able to determine if you are NRA and/or are you exempt ?
