You will need an I-20 or DS-2019 to apply for your student visa.

1. Submit the following documents via your portal, so we can create your I-20 or DS-2019.
   • The immigration information form
   • Passport biographical (photo) page
   • A bank statement or letter showing that you have enough funding to cover your education and living expenses for at least the first two semesters that you are at Akron.
   • Complete the Declaration and Certification of Finances, found under the "Incoming Students" tab.
   • The financial statement and (DCF) are important documents that prove your ability to support yourself for at least the first two semesters that you are here. These are not just check-list items: You may need to provide the same documents at your visa appointment.
   • We cannot process your I-20 without a signed DCF, even if you have a graduate assistantship that provides full funding. See the DCF for information about acceptable documents and other documents that may be required.  
     • The funds you provide should be considered a minimum, not a maximum amount you'll spend per academic year. There are many things that the cost of attendance estimate does not take into account, including room and board during academic breaks, international travel expenses, entertainment, furnishing an apartment, or storage of your things over summer breaks. If your funding includes an assistantship or scholarship, the cost of attendance does not factor the reduction in stipends for taxes. Nor does it factor emergencies: unplanned expenses like medical bills, car repairs or flight changes can happen to anyone. Students need a backup fund to avoid debt. It is important for you to be prepared as few options exist for additional financial support once you arrive in the United States.
       
       • If you have conditional admission and are admitted to the English Language Institute please use that cost, not the cost that corresponds to your anticipated academic degree.
       • Please note, if we have concerns about the authenticity of your documents, we may not be able to issue your I-20.
