1. Application Forms

The applicant must complete a preliminary questionnaire and application and return it with all items requested to CFNI's International Admissions Office.

2. Notification

In response to the application, the applicant will be notified by mail as to whether or not he/she is being considered for admission. The applicant must agree to fully cooperate with CFNI in every way and conform willingly to all its regulations and directives while a student.

3. Financial Documentation

The applicant (or a church, individual or business qualified to guarantee full support for the applicant) must then produce a legal document, such as a letter from a bank, verifying the applicant's ability to pay tuition and living costs, in advance. Sponsors must accompany the bank statement with a notarized Affidavit of Support form. Some positions are available on the Work Study Program, which helps the student with tuition and living costs, but CFNI never assists with the cost of transportation.

4. Eligibility

Upon receipt of the requirement stated in number 3 (above), the applicant will be sent a Certificate of Eligibility (Form I-20), along with an official acceptance letter. These are required by United States Embassies and Consulates for the applicant to obtain a student visa.
