Each international student must provide the University with evidence of the ability to finance an education by completing the International Student Certification of Finances form and International Student Financial Aid Application. Upon verification of funds, an initial $2,500 tuition deposit and $150 Room and Board deposit must be submitted. Securing finances is the responsibility of the student, and international students are often sponsored by their family, friends, or a host church or family. International students do not qualify for U.S. federally sponsored financial aid, but a limited amount of academic, church-related, and international student scholarship is available.

Once the above steps have been completed, the university will issue an I-20 form for the students to use in obtaining an F-1 visa. Students who are citizens of a country other than the United States of America (USA) must hold the F-1 visa in order to register for classes and enroll at the University. Persons who have entered the United States on a visitor's visa must convert it to an F-1 visa before the University will consider admission. International students on academic or disciplinary probation or dismissal at another university are not considered for admission. A SEVIS fee of $200 must be paid in addition to the visa application fee.
