How to enroll
Steps to Enroll
1. Complete and sign the application for enrollment. Here are some important points to remember:
- Print your full name EXACTLY as it appears on your passport.
- Be sure to check off the program and indicate which quarter and year you plan to attend.
- Tell us if you will be applying for an F-1 student visa, and be sure to complete parts 1-5.
- If you already have an F-1 student visa, complete Part 6 of the Application for Enrollment.
- To apply for an F-1 student visa, you will need documentation from the International English and Professional Programs verifying that you have been admitted to a course of study. To receive this acceptance documentation, you must prove that you have the funds to support yourself while in the U.S.
2. The International English and ProfessionalPrograms issues your acceptance documents.
It usually takes two business days from the time we receive your completed application for us to issue the acceptance document you need to apply for your F-1 student visa. We will send this document to you by express mail, along with an acceptance letter and some general information about living in the U.S.
3. Apply for your F-1 student visa. In some countries, you will have to make an appointment at your country's U.S. Embassy in advance of applying for your F-1 visa. Therefore, we recommend that you apply for your F-1 student visa as early as possible.
