How
can I obtain an I-20 form?
Answer: The
International Student application form must be filled out and returned to
the International Student Center with the required fees and documentation
before an I-20 can be issued. The I-20 is a document necessary to apply
for a foreign student visa at the U.S. Consulate in the student’s home
country. Upon admission, the I-20, along with orientation information, is
mailed to the student.
Can
I be admitted without a high school diploma?

or its equivalent may be accepted instead of a high school diploma. Proof
of completion of the GED or a similar high school equivalency program must
be submitted with the international student application.
Do
I need a TOEFL score?
Answer: International
