To receive an I-20 from Grier:

When an international student is accepted, the official letter of invitation is sent to her along with an I-20 form and an enrollment contract.  A minimum room deposit of $4,000 must be received by the school in order to guarantee her space in school. It is recommended that full payment of fees be made prior to the visa interview. If a visa is denied, all payments made to the school will be refunded once the original I-20 form has been cancelled by the Grier admission office. The applicant should provide the school with the letter of denial from the U.S. Consulate for this to be done.

Once the I-20 Form is received:

Both parents and student must sign the I-20 form in the appropriate spaces. Payment in full of tuition fees can help to ensure a successful visa interview. The Original I-20 form must be kept with the student’s passport for the duration of her stay in the United States!

IMPORTANT! Before you go into your visa interview, you will need to have paid the required fee for SEVIS in order for the I-20 form to be processed. You may do this online by accessing this website: https://www.fmjfee.com/index.jhtml.
