Visit the Office of Global Services to learn about the process of applying for an I-20.
If you are an international student requesting an I-20 — Certificate of Eligibility for Nonimmigrant (F-1) Student, you must submit financial and biographical information and documents.
You must submit your current study-eligible visa classification. Log in with your myNortheastern username and password to complete the Data Form for Non-NU Sponsored Students.
PLEASE NOTE: You will not be able to log into myOGS until 24 hours AFTER you set up your myNortheastern account. Log in to myOGS using your myNortheastern username and password. Failure to complete either form can inhibit your ability to access essential resources on campus.
Please note that some academic programs have experiential learning requirements (e.g. co-op or study abroad). Immigration statuses other than F-1 may not allow for participation in such activities. If you are currently in another visa status and choose not to switch to an F-1 status, you may impact your ability to study full-time or engage in authorized employment/training, such as an internship, co-op or practicum.
Should you have any questions on applying for a change of status to F-1, please email the Office of Global Services (NOTE: link opens email to the OGS, with a subject line of “Change of Status to F-1”).
