It was mentioned in the Swift Student Challenge that outstanding winners will have the opportunity to visit Apple Park in the United States. However, as a challenger from China who is not currently in the U.S., this means that if I receive the outstanding award, I will need to apply for a visa to travel to Apple Park. Since I am under 18, my guardian would also need to apply for a visa. Therefore, I would like to know if Apple provides visa assistance for outstanding winners and their guardians from China, or if we are responsible for applying for the visas on our own.

I can't talk from experience here, and I obviously cannot give you an official response, but you're likely not the first person from China, neither the first one who needs to apply for a visa, if this helps! :)

I'm pretty sure I saw a video with last years' distinguished winners, and I'm quite sure there was a student from China as well.

If you don't receive a response here, maybe you can contact the Swift Student Challenge team at swifstudentchallenge@apple.com (from their T&C).
