International Students

Welcome to the United States and to Stetson University!

Please complete the international student application checklist through the Office of Admission, as well as the International Student Certification of Finances

International students will only receive an I-20 for their F-1 student visa application after completing the Certification of Finances, the accompanying proof of funding, which will be used to determine your ability to afford the full-time cost of attendance for one school year (including housing and meals). This includes any scholarships received from Stetson University or other sources.

Your Financing Options

When admitted to Stetson University, international students will be automatically considered for one of our generous scholarships. However, we also have many premier scholarship programs for which an international student may be considered by submitting separate applications. These awards are based on merit to recognize outstanding achievement. Need-based aid is not available to international students.

Though traditional financial aid options are limited to citizens of the United States, there are still many options available for international students:
