International Students

Northeastern Seminary is certified to enroll students who do not hold United States citizenship and who comply with all appropriate U.S. Immigration Regulations. Following acceptance into either the master's or Doctor of Ministry degree program, students must present a Certificate of Finance and I-20 documentation before they will be permitted to begin class. Non-US citizens who are taking fully online master's programs are ineligible for I-20 documentation. Those persons found to be in non-compliance may be reported to immigration authorities. Additional information pertaining to student visas is available in the registration office.

International students are responsible for keeping immigration papers current and with proper approval. International students are required to be enrolled in a health insurance program and to purchase supplemental repatriation and medical evacuation benefits. International students have certain restrictions and unique needs including employment restrictions. Contact the admissions office (585.594.6802) for assistance.
