Supporting Documents
Applicants are also required to submit the following materials:
1. English-Language Testing
To apply for the Intensive English Program (IEP), you are not required to provide English language test results (although you may if you have them). You will be tested upon your arrival at Saint Michael’s College.
To enroll directly in the Academic English Program (AEP), we require a TOEFL score of 480 (or its equivalent). If you are not able to take this test before arrival, you may enroll initially into the IEP and transfer later into the AEP.
2. Copy of Passport
Send the photo page of your valid passport.
3. Certification of Finances
US Visa Regulations state we must receive a copy of a bank statement or an official letter signed by an officer of the bank indicating you have access to sufficient funds to study at Saint Michael’s for the length of your program, or one year, whichever is shorter. To document financial ability, you may send either an official bank statement or an official letter signed by an officer of the bank. If the referenced bank account is in the name of someone other than the student or an immediate family member, that person must sign as financial sponsor on the application form, or submit a letter or affidavit of support.
4. Medical Authorization
Health insurance is included in the cost of tuition. You must sign the Medical Authorization Form found in the Application.
5. Transcripts
Intensive English Program: Not required
Academic English Program: Official copies of university or secondary school transcripts are required
6. Housing Application
No housing application is required. Your room and board are included in the cost of tuition.
7. Application Fee
Not required for students enrolling from outside the United States. For applications from within the United States: $50.
What Happens Next?
Once you have submitted your application and supporting materials, it will be forwarded to the Admission Committee for consideration. We will contact you should we have any questions or require additional materials. Within days of receiving the application, we expect to be able to provide you with a response.
If your application is successful, we will send you an official acceptance letter and an I-20 Form, which along with financial documents, will enable you to apply for a U.S. student visa. Saint Michael’s College will help you to prepare to the visa interview.
