The Center for Global Learning (CGL) is committed to processing your I-20 in a timely and efficient manner. Please review the information below to better understand the timelines and factors involved in the issuance of your Form I-20.

CGL I-20 Processing Time
Our standard processing time is 5 business days from the date we receive a complete and accurate application, including all required supporting documentation.

Please note:

• Processing time begins only after we receive a complete application.
• Applications received during peak seasons (e.g., May–August, November–January) may require the full 5 business days.

U.S. Embassy/Consulate Visa Processing
Once you receive your I-20, you must schedule a visa appointment with a U.S. embassy or consulate in your home country.

Visa appointment and processing times vary widely depending on locations, time of year, and local conditions. We strongly recommend checking current appointment wait times and processing timelines via the U.S. Department of State’s Visa Appointment Wait Times tool.

Several factors can delay the issuance of your Form I-20. These include:

• Incomplete Application: Missing documents such as a passport copy, financial support documents, or Affidavit of Support.
• Insufficient Funding: Documents that do not demonstrate enough financial resources to cover tuition and living expenses for one academic year.
• Documents Not in English: All financial and supporting documents must be submitted in English or accompanied by a certified English translation.
• Unclear or Unreadable Documents: Scans or images that are blurry, cropped, or otherwise difficult to read.
• Name Discrepancies: Mismatched names or inconsistent information between your passport, application, and financial documents.
• High Application Volume: Peak periods may cause slight delays due to volume.
• Pending Tuition Deposit: We cannot issue an I-20 until the required tuition deposit has been received.

• Submit your application early (at least 30–60 days before your intended visa appointment).
• Double-check that all required documents are uploaded, legible, and properly formatted.
• Make sure all financial documentation clearly meets the required funding threshold.
• Respond promptly to any requests for clarification or additional documentation from the CGL team.

Before we can issue your I-20, you must submit your tuition deposit to secure your place at SPU. Visit your Peacock Applicant Portal to submit your deposit.

After we have confirmed your tuition deposit payment, please allow 5 business days for us to process it. You will then receive an email from the Center for Global Learning with instructions to apply for your I-20.

Once you receive the email, log in to the International Student Portal to begin your I-20 application. You will be asked to submit the following documents:

• Copy of your SPU Acceptance Letter/email. You can download your acceptance from your SPU student portal
• Copy of your passport (biographical page). Ensure that your passport is valid for at least six months beyond your intended entry date into the U.S.
• Financial documents demonstrating your ability to cover tuition and living expenses for at least one academic year (e.g., bank statements or scholarship letters). For additional information on SPU’s Cost of Attendance, visit the Enrollment Services website
• SPU Affidavit of Support. Be sure to submit the Affidavit of Support that is most appropriate for your degree level and academic program:
  • Undergraduate Programs
  • Traditional Graduate Programs

Carefully follow the instructions and submit all required documents through the International Student Portal. Please double-check that your documents are clear and accurate to avoid any delays in processing.

Once your documents have been reviewed and approved, your I-20 will be issued. Your I-20 will be uploaded to the International Student Portal where it will remain available for download.

After receiving your I-20, you must pay the SEVIS I-901 fee. This fee is required to activate your SEVIS record, which is a necessary step before you apply for your F-1 visa. You can pay this fee online at www.fmjfee.com. Be sure to keep the receipt for your visa interview.

With your I-20 and SEVIS I-901 payment receipt, you can now schedule an appointment for your F-1 visa interview at a U.S. embassy or consulate. Make sure to bring all required documents to your interview, including:

• Your Form I-20
• Valid Passport
• SEVIS fee receipt
• Financial support documents, and
• Admission letter from Saint Peter’s University.

You can apply for the F-1  visa up to 365 days prior to your program start date. Visit the U.S. Department of State website for information on Visa Appointment Wait Times.

If you are a Canadian citizen, you do not need to obtain a visa to enter the U.S. in F-1 student status. However, in order to be admitted into the U.S. under this status, you must present the following documents at the border:

• A valid Form I-20 (for F-1 status)
• Your admission letter from Saint Peter’s University
• Original financial documentation
• Proof of payment for the I-901 SEVIS fee (details about this fee will be provided with your I-20)
