2. Electronic Wire transfer (Please contact studentaccounts@moravian.edu for specific instructions to complete a wire transfer.)

Most students are financially sponsored by family, friends, or organizations. A sponsor must understand that they are making a financial commitment to the student, which should not be broken. Sponsors who fail to provide the promised support force students to drop out of school and cause pain and suffering. Do not expect that the student will be able to help support the costs of their education through employment. Employment is strictly controlled by USCIS (United States Citizen & Immigration Services) and is very limited.

To prove you are financially capable of providing this support for every year of the student's program, you must provide the following documents (Please note that if all of these documents are not sent, your support will not be considered.):

In order to issue the application for the student F-1 Visa (SEVIS I-20 form) accepted students must submit the following documents:

• Certification of Finance form (included in your acceptance packet) that confirms you and your sponsor understand the total cost of education, and there are adequate funds to cover your educational expenses under normal conditions through the full program. This form must be completely filled out in English and must be completed by all persons (sponsors) financially supporting the student. All questions must be answered. This document will be provided in the acceptance letter.
• A letter from a bank official or bank statements must accompany all figures indicated on the Certification of Finance form for verification. All documents must be dated within 3 months of application. Along with the Affidavit of Financial Support, three (3) consecutive months of bank statements must be included. The bank statements must be in the sponsor's name and include the date the account was opened, the current balance in U.S. dollars, average deposits, and average balances. We cannot accept statements that do not specify balances unless it is stated to be a minimum of six figures in U.S. dollars. Please note that if another person's name appears on the bank statement, that person must also complete a separate affidavit or submit a notarized* statement permitting those funds to be considered as financial support for the student.

Undergraduate students must prove that they have at least the equivalent of $70,376.00 (USD) per year readily available to them for educational expenses monies can be in any country and in any currency.

Graduate students must prove that they have at least the equivalent of $42,152.00 (USD) per year readily available to them for educational expenses monies can be in any country and in any currency. 

Students will receive more information regarding the Certificate of Finance form in their Acceptance Letter.

Acceptable sources of financial resources are saving accounts, checking accounts, money market accounts, and certificates of deposit. If Moravian awards you a merit scholarship, you may deduct the amount of the scholarship from the total.

All international students must register with the Student and Exchange Visitor Program (SEVP). F-1 students will receive their I-20 from Moravian’s International Admission office after they pay the enrollment deposit and submit their proof of financial support.
