Transfer Student Application: International Students Transferring from Other U.S. Programs
In addition to submitting the materials required for admission, international students wishing to transfer to Lindenwood from a SEVIS-sponsored school should also submit the following documents:
- Official transcripts from the college or university previously attended, sent directly to Lindenwood University.
- The SEVIS transfer eligibility form (found on the Lindenwood University website on the transfer international undergraduate students homepage), along with the letter of acceptance from Lindenwood University should be sent to the appropriate official at the school the student previously attended, where it will be processed and returned to the Lindenwood University Office of Admissions and Services for International Students (OASIS).
- The student’s transfer will not be considered complete until Lindenwood University receives the completed transfer paperwork. Once the transfer application has been processed, and an enrollment deposit is received, Lindenwood will issue the student a Lindenwood I-20, permitting the student to legally reside in the U.S. as a full-time international student.
The SEVIS transfer eligibility form should be sent to the Office of Admissions and Services for International Students' (OASIS) direct email account, internationaladmissions@lindenwood.edu.
Note: The terms, conditions, and requirements regarding the transfer of credits to Lindenwood University for international students correspond with the criteria listed in Transfer Student Application: U.S. Citizens and Residents.
International students must arrive on the designated date prior to the start of classes each semester to move into housing. Upon arrival, international students will be required to attend a mandatory orientation session to the university and an introduction to academic programs and requirements.
