After You Complete the Application Process:
After we have received all of the application documents required we will review your application. Students who are accepted will be sent an I-20 form and an official acceptance packet.

The I-20 form is the immigration document you will need when you apply for a student visa at your local U.S. Embassy or Consulate. The acceptance letter and other materials will give you detailed instructions on what you need to do to complete your enrollment. Also read more on the I-20 form and Visa Status Information tab. We encourage you to check Citizenship and Immigration Services for more information about the forms you will need to complete.
