How to Obtain your Student Visa
The below instructions must be used as a guide to obtain the proper Visa for attendance at Suffield Academy. Please bring these four items to the United States embassy in your country:

• Student’s letter of acceptance from Suffield Academy
• An enrollment contract
• The SEVIS Form I-20 issued by Suffield Academy
• SEVIS I-901 fee

 
Remember that if you have entered the United States with a tourist visa, you must return to your home country to obtain the correct student visa. Proper documentation will prove that you can finance a Suffield education and all related expenses. The above procedures are very important to complete. United States laws and regulations in regard to immigration are quite severe.


I-20 Form
Please note the following:
• Do not use the Global Entry kiosk when arriving in the U.S.
• Students must enter with original I-20
• Students are to present the I-20 at primary inspection
