I-20 Form
A Statement of Support completed and signed by the student’s family, sponsor, or government and a bank statement are needed before an I-20 can be issued. Student visas should be obtained before entering the United States, as converting from a tourist visa to a student visa is not assured.
An I-20 Form will be prepared for the applicant after the application and all necessary information have been received and the Office of Admissions has taken favorable action on the application. The I-20 Form cannot be prepared before the application is officially reviewed and the applicant accepted.
