International Student Payment Policy/I-20 Information
Important information regarding I-20 Immigration Form and pre-payment of tuition!
In order for our office to complete the I-20 immigration form, international students who have been offered admission to a degree or certificate program must provide pre-payment for their first semester's tuition. This money will be held in trust and will be refunded in full if for any reason you are not able to matriculate. You must also provide our office with proof of the ability to pay tuition, fees and living expenses for your first academic year. Please provide a statement from your bank, church and/or family and friends who are providing financial support during your stay in the United States. This statement must indicate its value in U.S. dollars. You may fax the information to us at (510) 845-8948, or call us at 1-800-999-0528 x1253. Please note that continuing students are not permitted to register or pre-register for classes until the previous semester of study has been paid in full. Once we receive your payment for the first semester's tuition and proof of your ability to pay tuition and fees for your first academic year, we will issue an I-20 immigration form.
