Upon acceptance to the Graduate School, F-1 students must adequately
document their financial resources for the duration of the academic
program before a visa will be issued. Financial verification,
in the form of an appropriate sponsorship statement and an advanced
deposit (in U.S. currency) equal to the amount of the first term'
s tuition, must be sent to Marquette before the certificate of
eligibility for a visa will be issued. The premium for the first
term of health and repatriation insurance, required of all F-1
and J-1 students, will be deducted from the advance deposit.
Students must be prepared to pay any remaining balance of the
first term's tuition when they arrive on campus. The advance
deposit will be waived if the student receives a scholarship
or other academic award that covers the cost of the first term's
tuition.
International students must abide by the regulations of their legal status
in the United States regarding their defined educational objectives, academic
load and employment. Most international applicants are eligible only for regular
degree status.
Those seeking admission for nondegree status must obtain a
statement of their legal eligibility from Marquette's Office
of International
Education.
