Cost of Attendance and Proof of Funding for Undergraduate Students
International students must provide documentation of financial resources sufficient for nine months (two semesters) of study. This documentation must be received before the student may be issued an I-20.
Federal financial aid is not available to international students.
Some students may receive financial support from a sponsor, such as an employer, a relative, or their home country government. These students must submit a letter confirming that the sponsor has accepted financial responsibility for them.
