*If you are not a U.S. Citizen, the law requires you obtain a student visa to study in the U.S. (unless you are otherwise in another status that legally permits you also to study while in the U.S.). In order to apply to a U.S. Embassy or Consulate for a student visa, you must first apply to the University for an I-20 (Certificate of Eligibility) to be issued by the school. This I-20 can only be issued after you have met all admissions criteria and have been fully accepted into your intended program of study and have submitted proof of financial capability for expenses you will incur while studying in the U.S. Please go to www.niagara.edu/international for the I-20 application and additional information.
