Financial Documentation for F-1 Students
Students seeking F-1 status are required by federal regulation to demonstrate that sufficient funds are available to cover the estimated cost for one year of tuition, fees, room, board, and miscellaneous expenses (insurance, local travel, etc.). Of course, students must be able to draw upon a reliable source of funding for the duration of study, as well. Indiana University South Bend may not issue an I-20 Certificate of Eligibility initially or for transfer until students are able to provide documentation of adequate financial support.
Students and their sponsors must also complete the Declaration of Financial Support form. This form may be mailed, faxed (574-520-4590), or emailed to the OISS (oiss@iusb.edu), together with financial documentation.
