<br><br><div link="blue" vlink="purple" lang="EN-US"><div><p class="MsoNormal">To Graduate Chairs, Program Directors and Graduate Staff:<u></u><u></u></p><p class="MsoNormal">Please note that due to the time requirements for obtaining appropriate travel documentation from foreign countries for fall quarter, the Graduate College will issue I-20/DS-2019 certificates of eligibility (I-20) to <u>new</u> international students through cut-off dates as indicated below:<u></u><u></u></p>
<p><u></u><span>1.<span style="font: 7pt "Times New Roman";"> </span></span><u></u>Self-funded international students: certificates will be issued through Tuesday, July 26. <u></u><u></u></p><p><u></u><span>2.<span style="font: 7pt "Times New Roman";"> </span></span><u></u>Students who have been offered partial university funding but have yet to provide evidence of the balance of funds required to issue a certificate of eligibility: certificates will be issued through August 1. The department will need to express-mail any I-20 issued after July 26. <u></u><u></u></p>
<p><u></u><span>3.<span style="font: 7pt "Times New Roman";"> </span></span><u></u>The Graduate College has already completed issuing I-20s to students who have been admitted with full university funding, where the Admit Form 1 and a copy of the award notification letter or e-mail has been received. Any late funding decisions need to be reported to the Graduate College by July 26 in order to issue an I-20 by August 1. Again, the department will need to express-mail any I-20 issued after July 26.<u></u><u></u></p>
<p><u></u><span>4.<span style="font: 7pt "Times New Roman";"> </span></span><u></u><b>New</b> admit forms for international students should be submitted to the Graduate College by this <b>Friday, July 15</b> to ensure that students have enough notice to gather any required financial documents by the I-20/DS-2019 issuance deadline.<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Admitted students were advised at the point of admission that the Graduate College will issue I-20/DS-2019s through July 25, and have been encouraged to submit necessary financial documents as soon as possible to ensure that they are able to obtain a visa in time to arrive for fall quarter. The cut-off date is set to maximize the student’s opportunity to apply for and receive a visa, arrange travel, and arrive on campus by the fall 2011 reporting date of August 25. Students who attempt to arrive after August 25 may encounter difficulty entering the country, so requests for late arrival should be strongly discouraged.<u></u><u></u></p>
