When all of the required documents are received, the student's application will be reviewed by the International Admissions Office. Once admission to the College is granted and a $4,000 initial tuition payment has been paid, the International Admissions Office will issue the I-20, Certificate of Eligibility for Nonimmigrant (F-1) Student Status, form to the applicant. It is this document that the applicant signs, dates, and takes to the proper embassy or consul official to secure application for a student visa (F-1) to leave his/her respective country.

International applicants should familiarize themselves with the F-1 International Student Handbook, which explains Federal rules and regulations, employment restrictions, travel and absence policies, and other information necessary for maintaining status while studying in the program.  Students should also familiarize themselves with the employment regulations for International Students.

International students must maintain health insurance coverage while enrolled at the College.  Students will automatically be enrolled in the student health insurance plan sponsored by the College unless the student shows proof of health insurance coverage applicable in the state of Delaware and completes the Student Health Insurance Online Waiver at the College.  The student account will be charged the cost of the student health insurance.
