Required Immigration Documents Based on Status:
1) No current F-1 student status in the U.S. - Initial Form I-20
If you decide to come to Champlain College, an Initial I-20 will allow you to obtain an F-1 student visa which will allow you to study full-time in a degree-seeking program at Champlain College.
Please fill out the Champlain College Form I-20 Application Information Form and follow the directions to submit any required documentation.
2) Current F-1 student status in the U.S. - Transfer Form I-20
If you already have an F-1 student visa which is valid (and will be valid for reentry and start of classes at Champlain), you will need to ask your high school to help you with a SEVIS transfer before your current Form I-20 expires and apply and submit appropriate documentation for a Transfer Pending Form I-20.
Please fill out the Champlain College Form I-20 Application Information Form and follow the directions to submit any required documentation.
3) Other non-immigrant status in the U.S.
If you currently hold another non-immigrant visa status within the U.S. (F-2, H-4, L-2, etc), please reach out to a qualified, experienced immigration attorney to discuss whether or not your visa status will allow you to earn a degree and hold employment (work on-campus, paid internships, etc) within the U.S.
If your current status will not permit these activities in the U.S., please fill out the Champlain College Form I-20 Application Information Form and follow the directions to submit any required documentation. You will find the full costs of Champlain College (including housing) in the Form I-20 Application.
4) U.S. Citizens or Dual Citizens Abroad
Please travel only on a valid, unexpired U.S. passport to enter and exit the U.S.
