International Students
International students who wish to attend Northwestern University's Summer Session as visiting students may enter the United States on a J-1 or an F-1 visa and must register full-time, which is defined as three or four courses. In order to obtain the appropriate visa document, please go the International Office web site at www.northwestern.edu/international and click on New Students and follow that to the Applying for a Student Visa link.
In addition to the Visiting Student Registration Form, international
students must submit the following materials to the Summer
Session Office (405 Church Street, Evanston, Illinois 60208-4220)
no later than April
1, 2008:
- A completed I-20/DS 2019 Request Form, available at http://www.northwestern.edu/international (from this page, follow the directions to the request forms as stated above).
- All financial documents specified in the I-20/DS 2019 Request Form; failure to submit proper documentation delays the visa process.
- A copy of your Test of English as a Foreign Language score report showing a minimum score of 100 (internet), 600 (paper), or 250 (electronic).
The Northwestern University International Office processes the request and, upon approval, generates a visa eligibility document. This document is mailed to the address indicated on your I-20/DS 2019 Request Form. If you have questions regarding visa issues, please e-mail the International Office at intadmit@northwestern.edu. Please, do not telephone the International Office as they are unable to return international calls.
Prior to arrival on campus, international students must also submit an Admission Health Record Form to prove that they meet the entrance health requirements mandated by Illinois law and Northwestern University. Contact Health Services at 847-491-2117 or mfd810@northwestern.edu to request a copy or download the form at www.nuhs.northwestern.edu.
