In the love and service of Our Lord Jesus Christ, Steven W. Reynolds, Administrative Assistant/HS Principal Pamela Hanson, International Student Coordinator International Students Checklist International students generally fall under two categories. First are the cultural exchange students who are applying through an organization (e.g. AYA, PAX, etc.). They are usually planning on attending one semester or one year (likely with a J-1 visa). The application process is simplified because much of the needed information is supplied to us by the organization. The second category are students who are applying independently (needing an F-1 visa). These students often desire to attend more than a single year (actually obtaining their diploma from an American high school). They need all the forms of a local on-campus student plus others required by Homeland Security for non-immigrant alien students. Please note that our tuition is higher for International students so that we can continue to provide a better program for them. You will observe that the Independent International Student tuition is higher than those affiliated with foreign exchange student programs, this is partly due to additional requirements that the school has to meet, but also has the benefit of the family knowing the exact amount of school related expenses regardless of the which classes and activities their child chooses to pursue. It is a comprehensive fee.
