Graduate Students: Admissions decisions are made once all documents have been received, reviewed and evaluated by the Graduate Admissions Office. Once accepted, a non-refundable reservation deposit of $300 in US funds must be submitted to the Graduate Admissions Office. This deposit will be applied to the first semester’s tuition.

Immigration Requirements

All Canadian citizens and permanent residents must obtain a Federal Form I-20. Your I-20 form will be issued after submitting your tuition deposit, the international student financial forms and supporting bank documentation. Instructions will be given with your I-20 on how to process it at the border. Permanent residents in Canada must make an appointment at a US consulate in order to obtain a student visa. Also, Canadian students may attend school in the US on a part-time basis but may not live in the United States.
