Enrollment in IEP meets U.S. immigration requirements for full-time study. The IEP acceptance packet will include an I-20 form (certificate of eligibility) for every student who needs to apply for a student visa. Detailed instructions regarding the visa application process will be provided with the I-20. This form must be presented at the nearest U.S. Embassy or Consulate in the applicant’s country to obtain a visa for entry into the United States.
