to pay for at least the first year of academic study. The Certificate of Finances
Form, found within the UVI International Student Manual, should be supplemented with an official bank letter stating $38,000 (USD) is available
for Academic Year 2024-2025 expenses. Photocopies, faxed, or scanned copies will not
be accepted. Personal bank account statements will not be accepted, as well. The
I-20 Immigration Form will not be issued until a Certification of Finances Form has
been received for review. Please submit the Certificate of Finances Form 4-6 weeks
in advance of the start of your initial enrollment term.
- Documentation of financial support must be submitted along with the Certificate of
Finance form to verify the availability of funds for at least the first year of study;
and projected support for the remainder of the degree program. Documentation should
include an official letter from the bank or lending institution, to confirm availability
of funds. Once the following is completed, documentation will be provided to assist
you in completing the I-901 process. Please note: There is a charge for the I-901 processing. To receive information and pay the I-901
fee, you may click here. You will not be able to get an appointment for the interview at the nearest U.S.
embassy if the I-901 processing is not completed. It is required that "F-1" students
pursue a full-time course of study, the equivalent of 12 undergraduate credits per
semester. Failure to do so will render the student in violation of their F-1 visa
status. You may not attend the University full-time on a B-2 visa.
