IMPORTANT: Follow the dates below when completing the international student process. All supporting admissions documentation must be submitted by these deadlines. Documents received after the posted deadlines will be processed for the following term. No exceptions will be made.

Application Deadlines – New International F-1 Students

Application Deadlines – Transfer International F-1 Students

Application Deadlines - Co-Enrolled International Students

For co-enrolled students and other visa holders beyond the F-1 visa holders, all documents must be submitted and processed prior to the day before classes begin for the desired academic term. B-visa holders cannot enroll under this visa designation.

International Student Arrival and Orientation Dates

Students holding an F-1 Visa are only allowed to enter the United States 30 days prior to the first day of school.

Orientation is mandatory for all new international F-1 students and transfer international F-1 students. Failure to attend the posted orientation date or arriving late to orientation will result in an immediate termination of a student’s I-20 and students automatically will be moved to the following term. No exceptions will be made to this policy. We recommend that you plan to arrive to the Bryan/College Station area no later than 24 hours prior to the orientation date to ensure your attendance.
