This is an exciting time and we look forward to having you join us on campus. Before you begin your journey, there are a number of things you need to take care of. We want to make this part of the process as easy as possible.
How to Apply for an F-1 Student Visa
You will often hear and read the term SEVP or SEVIS. The Student and Exchange Visitor Program (SEVP) is a program within the U.S. Department of Homeland Security that manages the Student and Exchange Visitor Information System (SEVIS). SEVIS is the internet-based system that maintains records of foreign students and exchange visitors before and during their stays in the United States.
STEP 1:

STEP 2:
Pay the SEVIS fee. You must pay a SEVIS fee and fill out other visa application forms prior to your visa interview.

For more information, you may also visit the Study in the States website for students (). Visa interview scheduling is done online or by phone at most U.S. embassies and consulates.
STEP 3:
Schedule Your Interview and Apply for Your Visa (This step does NOT apply to Canadian citizens.) Refer to the U.S. nonimmigrant visa website .
It is best practice to ensure your passport is valid for at least six months beyond the end of your study in the United States and that your name is spelled correctly and appears the same on all documents.
