Are you kidding!!! Ofcourse not. You must get a new visa. You can stay in the country as long as you are a fulltime student even after your visa expired but you cant come back without a new visa.

Ofcourse you can. If your I-20 is valid, even your visa is expired. This program called revalidation. This is for 30 days only. Please, contact with your DSO or forigen student adviser.

For travel to Canada or Mexico, first check with your Embassy to see if a tourist visa will be required to enter either country.You will need to have your passport, visa documents (I-94 card and I-20 or DS-2019), and Baruch Colege student ID card with you when you travel, and be certain that your I-20 or DS-2019 has an authorizing signature for travel no older than February 1, 2005. Canada now requires tourist visa applications to present a letter from their school´s international student office, verifying their status as a student.

In 2002, The U.S. Department of State announced new rules for non-immigrants who use the "automatic revalidation of visa" benefit [22 CFR 41.112(d)] to re-enter the United States after a 30-day or less visit to a "contiguous territory" (Canada, Mexico, and, in the case of F and J non-immigrants, the "adjacent islands other than Cuba") without having to obtain a new visa prior to re-entry. To qualify for this privilege, you must:

Presently be in valid F-1 student / scholar status.
Have a valid SEVIS I-20 in your possession, which has been signed for travel Have a valid SEVIS I-94 card with you (do NOT surrender it when you leave the U.S.)
Have a valid passport
Be in one of the contiguous territories or adjacent islands for less than thirty (30) days.
