International Students

International applicants must show adequacy of funds for the entire first year and evidence of sufficient funds to complete your education before they can qualify for the appropriate visa at the nearest US Consulate. Although US Immigration Service regulations now permit summer and part-time work off-campus for international students, such employment is difficult to obtain in this area.
