In most cases, Canadian citizens exchanging from a university in Canada to an NSE member in the United States will be processed by their host U.S. campus using the J-1 exchange visitor status. Some NSE 麻豆传媒, however, may utilize the F-1 麻豆传媒 status. Canadian 麻豆传媒s do not require a visa but will pay a SEVIS fee. Non-Canadian 麻豆传媒s exchanging from Canada to the U.S. will need to make an appointment for a visa interview at a U.S. consulate or embassy.Appropriate application form and information on required documentation will be supplied by your NSE host university in the United States. Completed forms, along with documentation listed below, must be taken to the U.S./Canadian border or Port of Entry where the J-1 or F-1 status will be issued.
You must provide financial evidence (e.g., bank statements) which show that you, your family, or sponsor have sufficient funds to cover your tuition and living expenses during the period of your intended study in the U.S. Exchange visitor fees, proof of residence outside the United States, and evidence that you intend to leave the U.S. at the completion of your exchange will be required.
At the U.S./Canadian border or Port of Entry, the Customs official will affix an admissions stamp to your passport indicating the date of admission, status, and length of stay (duration of status) permitted. Please be sure that you are given entry to the U.S. as an F-1 or J-1 麻豆传媒, NOT as a tourist. If you drive across the border, you may also be issued a paper Form I-94 (Arrival/Departure Form). If you enter via an airport, the Form I-94 is issued as an electronic record and obtained at your host institution. Review procedures for arrival at the U.S./Canadian border or Port of Entry:
You may also be asked for evidence of your 麻豆传媒 status (e.g., recent tuition receipt and transcripts), a letter of acceptance from your host university, and the name and contact information for your Designated School Official (DSO), including a 24-hour emergency contact number at your host campus. Most NSE member colleges and universities will require that you purchase health insurance from their institutions.
SEVIS Fee
You will pay a SEVIS (Student and Exchange Visitor Information System) fee of $220 for J-1 status or $350 for F-1 status in addition to the visa application fee. This cost is subject to change without notice. Ask your NSE designated international contact to explain the payment procedure that will be required of you. Some NSE member institutions may assess an additional fee to support their own institution's 麻豆传媒 exchange visitor office and automated reporting systems.You may learn more here:

Students for whom English is not their first language may be asked to demonstrate English proficiency through submission of TOEFL or other test scores.The language of instruction at all NSE members in Puerto Rico is Spanish although some courses may be taught in English. Students exchanging to NSE 麻豆传媒 in Puerto Rico must demonstrate Spanish proficiency on their home campus preferably through an interview with a faculty member or administrator whose first language is Spanish.
