Getting an I-20

All non-immigrant students who want to have an F-1 visa must have an I-20 to present to the embassy or consulate in their home country. The university may issue an I-20 (Certificate of Eligibility for Nonimmigrant (F-1) Status) to international students who have been admitted to a full-time university program and have shown proof of sufficient finances to cover all anticipated expenses while in the U.S. 

The first step in obtaining an I-20 is to apply to the university. Prospective students may use the university financial support form or may provide notarized letters of support from the sponsor and the sponsor's bank which indicate the amount of money necessary for the student's program and the period of time that the student wishes to study.  The university posts a breakdown of estimated expenses each year.
