International Applicant Forms

Visa Clearance Form
Toggle More Info

Only International students who have recently attended a U.S. institution need to fill out this form. For proper verification of immigration status, the Visa Clearance Form should be filled out, signed, and mailed to FGCU by your Designated School Officer from the previous institution.
Financial Support Verification Letter or Sponsor's Financial Support Statement
Toggle More Info

In order to assist you better, two samples of Financial Forms consistent with FGCU's standards have been made available for your use.

Select only one form that is appropriate to your specific situation and have your financial institution complete, sign and mail it directly to the university. In order to be considered official, the form has to be mailed by the Bank or brought in a sealed envelope to the Office of Admissions.

If you have a sponsor/parent/guardian who is paying for all your expenses, and you intend to reside on campus, use the Financial Support Verification Letter from a bank - a sample letter is in the International Admissions Guide.

If you are going to be living independently off-campus or with a sponsor/guardian/parent in Florida, use the Sponsor's Financial Support Statement along with a bank statement to verify funds. A sample statement is in the International Admissions Guide.

Whatever form you decide to use, remember that foreign currency figures are not acceptable. All monies have to be converted to U.S. dollars. The Financial Statement should be dated no more than six months prior to the intended date of enrollment.

Appeal Documents:

An appeal of a denial admissions decision will only be considered if you provide new and compelling information that was not part of your original application; moreover, these items must be submitted within 30 days of your denial date. Examples of new and compelling information include but are not limited to new test scores that are significantly higher than those previously submitted. You must submit a 2-page personal essay in which you describe extenuating circumstances that influenced your academic performance, discuss your special talents or abilities, and explain what you expect to contribute to the FGCU campus. Also, you need at least two letters of recommendation from academic sources such as high school teachers or college professors. Recommendation letters from employers, family members or any other non-academic source will not be considered. The appeals documents must be submitted by email to undergrad@fgcu.edu in a PDF or Word document format– make sure to enter “Appeals Document” in the subject field of your email. Before pursuing this process, you should retest and submit significantly higher scores or make plans to transfer to FGCU.
