International Student Services

Quincy College welcomes international students from all over the world.

Overview

Quincy College welcomes international students to our campus from around the world. Our international students have chosen this two-year institution for the same reasons American students did: Quincy College’s committed faculty and small class sizes, opportunities to transfer to four-year universities, outstanding academic programs, flexible class schedules, convenient location in the Boston area and affordability.

Quincy College makes it easy to transfer to a four-year institution as we have articulation agreements with many public and private universities.

We also have many clubs and organizations to enhance student life at Quincy College such as Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society, Intramural sports, and more. Additionally, we offer student services to further enrich your experience at Quincy College. We offer one-on-one in-person and virtual tutoring, The Office of Career Services will help you find an internship or part-time job, and our Student Success Coaches are here to help you if you are feeling overwhelmed or stressed. 

Our International Student Services Office provides support and services to all international students at Quincy College. We strive to make the transition to an American college easy and enjoyable by helping you find a place to live, providing academic advising, and counseling you on immigration matters.

Visa Information

You will need to obtain a passport from your government and then apply for an F-1 student visa from the American Embassy or Consulate in your home country. Find out how to make an appointment at the US Embassy here. Once your appointment has been made you will need to bring the following with you:

• The original I-20 issued by Quincy College
• Proof of payment of the $200 SEVIS fee
• Form DS-160 (may need additional forms)
• Valid passport (passport must be valid beyond the intended period of stay in the U.S.)
• Copy of the financial documents you gave to Quincy College admissions
• One passport size photograph
• Fee

All applicants should be prepared to provide:

• Transcripts and diplomas from previous institutions attended;
• Scores from standardized tests required by the educational institution such as the TOEFL, and IELTS;
• Financial evidence showing you (or sponsor) have sufficient funds to cover your tuition and living expenses during the period of your intended study.

To pay the SEVIS fee, use the website at http://www.fmjfee.com. This site contains a description of the fee and how to pay it online or via post. If you have questions, please contact the International Student Service Office. Remember, the SEVIS fee is not the same as a visa application fee or college admission fee. Follow your local U.S. Embassy’s instructions regarding the payment of the visa application fee.

Maintaining F-1 Status

As you are aware, immigration regulations and reporting for F-1 students have changed significantly over the past few years. All reporting on international students is now done through SEVIS (Student and Exchange Visitor Information System). The following are some important points regarding your responsibilities as an F-1 student.

Please be aware that failure to register for and complete at least 12 credits per semester will result in automatic loss of F-1 status. Permission to take less than 12 credits may be granted under very limited circumstances and requires written permission from the Director of International Student Services.
