Application Plans and Deadlines
Rolling Admissions

Financial Evaluation Process
The financial evaluation process relates to issuance of the Form 1-20, which occurs after the student has been accepted. Please note that admission decisions are not based upon immigration status. Once you are accepted, you will need a Form I-20 in order to obtain an F-1 Student Visa. In order for SUNY Delhi to issue a Form I-20 after acceptance, a tuition and housing deposit of $150 U.S. dollars must be paid to the college.
We require the following documents for the financial evaluation process. These documents must be dated nine months or fewer prior to the date of the semester you are attending and can be sent directly to the Enrollment Services Office at SUNY Delhi:
- Foreign Financial Statement (FSA-4) (pdf)
- An official bank statement proving funding for one full academic year. The bank statement must come from the student, his or her parent(s), or a sponsor. The balance must be converted to U.S. dollars.
