A student visa (typically an F-1 student visa) is required to study in the United States. An F-1 visa can be obtained by contacting the United States Embassy or Consulate in your own country along with presentation of the following documents:
- A valid Form I-20 Certificate of Eligibility (footnote)
- A passport
- Evidence of financial support
Please visit the U.S. Department of State website for additional information.
* Candidates will receive their I-20 documents needed for the Visa application only following admission to the college. The Certification of Finances form and Bank Letter or Financial Affidavit must be on file with the college. I-20 documents are assembled and mailed in early summer following admission.
