FINANCIAL AID & SCHOLARSHIPS

International students and U.S. students are eligible for the same merit-based scholarships of up to $42,000 per year, which are guaranteed for four years of study. Like U.S. students, international applicants are automatically considered for scholarships during the application review stage. If a scholarship is awarded, this information will be included in the acceptance letter. Please note that full-tuition scholarships are not possible, but Allegheny does offer limited need-based aid for international students, which applicants can inquire about after they have been accepted.

VISA & TRAVEL INFO

First, you will need to obtain (1) a passport from your country of citizenship. Next, you’ll use (2) the SEVIS DS-2019 that has been mailed to you by Allegheny College to obtain (3) a J-1 visa at the appropriate U.S. Consulate in your home country. After you have made your deposit, the Office of International Education will contact you to guide you through the visa application process.

INTERNATIONAL STUDENT SERVICES

International Student Services (ISS) supports the international student and scholar population by advising on immigration, academic, personal and cultural matters. Through individualized cross-cultural advising and peer mentoring programs, ISS helps to develop and enhance students’ intercultural knowledge and the skills necessary to navigate a complex and interconnected world.
