Applicants who have earned their degree(s) from an international institution must submit official transcripts directly from the university or college. The transcripts must be in the original language of the country accompanied by an English translation. If the degree awarded and the date of award is not on the transcripts, applicants must also include a separate degree certificate document.

  IELTS - 6.5

Immigration and visa informationAccordion Open

The privileges and responsibilities of a foreign national in the United States of America depend on the type of visa held. Therefore, is important to ensure that international graduate students obtain the appropriate visa.

Obtaining an F-1 or J-1 Visa

To obtain a visa, you should present to the nearest United States Consulate in your country the following items:

• A Form I-20 (F-1) or a Form DS-2019 (J-1) issued by Northern Arizona University and your admission letter;
• A valid passport;
• Receipt of the SEVIS fee Form I-901 payment; AND
• Proof of financial support, as stated on the Certificate of Eligibility.

It is not advisable to enter the United States on a visitor’s visa and then later request to change this to a student visa. Please note that these requests are usually denied.

Students under H-1B visa status

Prospective students under a H-1B visa are required to provide a copy of their current H-1B visa and official documentation from their employer verifying the academic studies are incidental to their employment. The Office of Graduate & Professional Studies will request this information and provide instructions upon receipt of the student’s application.
