招生的清单 – 研究生

我们的办公室, the 国际 Program Center, works in conjunction with the BSU School of 研究生 Studies for all international applicants who apply for admission to study in an on-campus graduate program. 我们的办公室 deals specifically with the application documents needed for visa issuance.  All other aspects of the application are handled by The School of 研究生 Studies.

BSU 研究生 Application

Application Documents needed for Visa Issuance

All supporting documents may be scanned and submitted to our office via email. We reserve the right to request an original copy of documents, should the scanned copy not prove sufficient.

Along with your completed BSU 研究生 Application, you must submit:

  1. Proof of English Proficiency
  2. 金融证词 & 2023-24 成本 Information
    • The form must show that the student has enough funding to cover the cost of the first year of study. This form must include the required signatures and supporting line-by-line bank statements dated within the last three months.
  3. 国际 students currently studying in the United States on an F-1 visa will need to complete an 国际 转账申请表格
  4. 国际 Agreement Form
  5. Copy of the name/identification page of your passport
  6. 请参阅 The School of 研究生 Studies pages for additional information and requirements specific to your intended program.

IMPORTANT: All application materials, including supporting documents (e.g. bank statements, transcripts) become the property of Bemidji State University and cannot be returned.

Nigerian Students: Submit proof of registration with 美国教育中心.

Applications from Nigerian students WILL NOT be reviewed and status emails will not be answered until the 美国教育中心 registration confirmation is submitted. This requirement has been put in place to provide the best possible chance of success with the visa process.

    • In past years, fewer than 10% of applicants from Nigeria to BSU have been approved for F-1 visas. 出于这个原因, we now require that all Nigerian applicants register and set up an appointment with an 美国教育中心 center in Nigeria.
    • 美国教育中心 is an organization of non-profit advising centers that are supported and/or endorsed by the U.S. 国务院. Their purpose is to provide assistance to students who would like to study in the United States. Students who work with 美国教育中心 are more informed about the visa process and therefore more likely to be successful in obtaining a student visa.
