International Students
Frontier School of the Bible is approved by the U.S. Department of Justice, Immigration and Naturalization Service for the training of foreign non-immigrant students.
In addition to the requirements of the application process, the following steps must be taken:
- Proof of Funds - International applicants must submit a statement from their bank or a letter from the person intending to pay for their schooling, proving the financial requirement will be met for the enrollment period at FSB. The international student must prove to the US Consul that sufficient funds are accessible to undertake a program of study, and must show ties to their home country with plans to return when studies are completed.
- TOEFL - (Test of English as a Foreign Language) Non-English speaking applicants will be required to take the TOEFL. For more information contact the FSB Admissions Department.
- I-20 Form - When the applicant has been accepted and the Proof of Funds letter is received, an I-20 form will be sent to the student. The I-20 form is required so the student may enter the United States using an M-1Visa.
- Meet with the American Consul - When the student receives the I-20 from, he/she must make an appointment with the American Embassy for an interview with the Consul. The student must take the following paperwork with him/her to the Embassy for inspection:
- I-20 Form
- Financial documents
- Valid Passport
- Student Visa - When the student is approved, an M-1 Visa will be granted, which will be used to enter the USA. He/She is responsible for maintaining legal M-1 status. The M-1 student visa will not allow the student off-campus employment while in the USA; therefore, sufficient funds must be procured in advance (or there must be planned regular financial support) for study in the USA at Frontier School of the Bible.
