Graduate College of Engineering I-20 Request Instructions What is an I-20? An I-20 is a U.S. immigration document issued by Northeastern University to certify that an international student has met admission requirements for a full-time program of study and has provided proof of sufficient financial resources for his/her studies. An I-20 is required to apply for an F-1 student visa at a U.S. embassy or consulate. The following admitted and deposited students should request an I-20 from Northeastern University: Initial - New international students coming from outside the U.S. seeking visa sponsorship Transfer - Students currently in F-1 status studying at another school in the U.S. Change of Program/Level - Current Northeastern students in F-1 status moving to a new degree program at Northeastern University Change of Status within the United States - Students currently in the U.S. in a nonimmigrant status (e.g. H-4, F-2, etc.) who want to change to F-1 status* * If you are not planning to change to F-1 status, please note that not all immigration status categories allow for studying, internships, co-ops, international travel associated with an academic program and/or other experiential learning opportunities. Please note that some academic programs at Northeastern have experiential learning requirements (e.g., co-op or study abroad). Immigration statuses other than F/J may not allow for those and as such may impede the successful completion of your program of study. When can you request an I-20? You can submit an I-20 Request only after you have been admitted, have accepted the offer, and have paid a tuition deposit. At that time, you will be able to submit an electronic I-20 Request through myOGS. How can you prepare for, access and submit the online “I-20 Request”? 1. Gather the following required documents in a digital format (e.g. PDF or JPG): Identity page of your passport in color copy Financial documents meeting your program’s expenses (Estimated Expenses and Guidelines for Demonstrating Financial Support are on the next page) Students currently in F-1 status at another U.S. institution must also submit a Transfer-In Verification Form Students currently in the U.S. in a nonimmigrant status other than F-1 who are applying to change to F-1 status must also submit documentation of their current visa status. Currency Conversion: if the financial documents you are submitting are not in U.S. Dollars, you will need to provide a currency conversion and upload it to the e-form.
