Our expert Student Enrollment Advisors will support you through the whole process. Your admission will follow these simple steps:

1. Submit your application form by email or fax.
2. Also send us your supporting documents:
   • official school transcripts in English
   • bank statement
   • TOEFL/IELTS score (if available*) and GRE score (if required)
   • copy of your passport
3. We will pass your application to the Admissions Department for review of your academic qualifications.
4. If your application is successful we send you a formal University acceptance letter within approximately four weeks.
5. A $500 deposit (refundable if your visa is denied) must be paid to confirm your acceptance.
6. We will release your I-20 immigration document.
7. You then need to apply for a F1 student visa.
8. One month before the start of the semester you must pay your remaining fees (either in full or your first instalment).
9. Before your program starts, we will ask you to complete pre-arrival documents (medical, flight details etc).
10. When you arrive in the US, you will be met at the airport and taken to your new home.

* you do not need a TOEFL or IELTS score to qualify for the Transition Program.

Application Deadline

---

There is no deadline for applications - we offer rolling admissions. However, we do recommend that you apply as early as possible, and at least ten weeks before the start of semester, because the visa application process may delay your admission.
