International Students

The Donoho School welcomes international student inquiries from all over the world and is recognized by the Student Exchange and Visitor Program (SEVP) as a SEVIS approved school.  We have the authorization to issue the I-20 forms to our international students so that they may obtain an F-1 student visa.   

Note: Applicants from the People’s Republic of China and Republic of Korea should contact the Cambridge Institute for more information as well as assistance in processing your application. You may contact Cambridge Institute by email:  donohoschool@thecambridgeinstitute.org.  

Due to limited space, available applications should be submitted by October 1 for the next spring semester and March 15 for the next fall semester.
