Notice of Intent, Financial Documentation,
& Advance Fee Deposit
Notice of Intent Form
Prospective students admitted to Purdue University will be required to complete a NOTICE OF INTENT (NOI) form, which will be mailed with the letter of admission to holders of student or exchange visitor visas. The completed NOI must be returned with official financial support documents, a copy of the passport, and a fee deposit to Purdue's Office of International Students & Scholars before an immigration document will be prepared and mailed. Financial Documentation
The U.S. federal government requires U.S. universities to verify the finances of sponsors of international applicants prior to issuing a Certificate of Eligibility (COE). A COE, Form I-20 for F-1 students and Form DS 2019 for J-1 students, is used to apply for a student visa at a U.S. embassy or consulate. The following original or certified copies (attested true copies) can be submitted as evidence: - bank statement or letter from sponsor's bank attesting to the financial savings of the sponsor
- investment firm statements

Advance Fee Deposit
Prospective international undergraduate students accepted to an academic program at Purdue are requested to make an advance fee deposit in the amount of the estimated tuition and fee charges for their first semester. This deposit is credited to the student's account for tuition and fee charges for the first semester at the University. An immigration document will be issued only after the advance fee deposit and all supporting financial documentation (including the NOI form described previously) have been received at the university. For fall semester the deadline for receipt of payment is May 1; for spring semester, October 1. The fee deposit is refundable in full prior to the beginning of any semester. The refund will be sent after the immigration document has been returned to the University.
