Passport Information

If you are a US citizen and you plan to study overseas, in most cases, it is nescessary to have a valid and current passport. Most foreign countries require that your passport be valid for at least 3 months after your intended departure. Many foreign countries also require that you also have either a visa or a residence permit if you will be in-country for more than three months (for more information on whether you will need one of these for the country you intend to study in, Contact us).

To obtain a passport, you must have the following:

1. 2 passport photos (The photos must meet certain specifications or they won't be accepted)
2. The completed but unsigned application
3. An official birth certificate
4. A driver's license or other form of official picture ID
5. The nescessary fee
