Evidence of Financial Support

In order to meet the standards set by the United States Citizenship and Immigration and Services (USCIS), you must provide official documents to prove that you have enough money to pay for your education BEFORE we are allowed to issue your Form I-20. We provide a limited number of merit scholarships and on-campus housing grants to help lower the cost of attendance for international students, especially those with a record of extraordinary academic achievement. Early applicants get priority consideration. To estimate the amount of funds you will need to show, visit our cost page and subtract the scholarship package amount that you believe you will qualify to receive. You will be notified of your actual scholarship award when you are notified of your admission decision. There is no separate application for scholarships.
