Before issuing an I-20, a university is required by law to verify that prospective students have:

1. Academic ability
2. English language proficiency
3. Financial support for the intended program of study.

ÌÇÐÄ´«Ã½ issues an I-20 for a prospective F-1 student after the student has been accepted for studies and has provided evidence of full financial support for the expenses of living and studying here for the proposed period of time.

Upon acceptance to the Graduate School of Management F-1 students will be emailed the necessary financial verification and advance deposit amounts.  F-1 students must adequately document their financial resources for the duration of the academic program before a visa will be issued. Financial verification, in the form of an appropriate sponsorship statement and an advanced deposit (in U.S. currency) equal to the amount of the first term's tuition, must be sent to Marquette before the certificate of eligibility for a visa will be issued.   For further information on the current financial verification requirements and sponsorship statement requirements please contact the Graduate School of Management at GSM@Marquette.edu. The premium for the first term of health and repatriation insurance, required of all F-1 and J-1 students, will be deducted from the advance deposit. All but $500 is refundable if the student chooses not to attend Marquette. Students must be prepared to pay any remaining balance of the first term's tuition when they arrive on campus. The advance deposit will be waived if the student receives a scholarship or other academic award that covers the cost of the first term's tuition.  We will send the I-20 as soon as we receive the required deposit and acceptable financial verification form.
