Sponsored Students
International students who are sponsored by an embassy, ministry, cultural mission, or government, regardless of their visa type (may include A-1, F-1, etc.), require various documents in order to request or maintain their scholarship.
Submit your request for documents before the end of the semester so that you can obtain a Financial Guarantee from your sponsor and register for classes in a timely manner.
To request any of the documents listed below, follow the instructions on the Registrar’s webpage. Examples of documents that sponsored students may need to request from the Registrar:
- Tutoring Letter
- Conference Letter
- Expected Graduation Date Letter
- Enrollment Verification
- Schedule Print-Out
- Degree Completion Letter
SACM Sponsored Students
I-20 issuance or program extension
SACM sponsored students must submit an I-20 request via the ISSS portal following the same process as other international students seeking to obtain F-1 status. The process includes uploading a completed and signed Declaration of Finances form and uploading evidence of ability to meet Marymount’s proof of funding requirements (scroll down the proof of funding webpage to find additional information specific to SACM sponsored students).
Now that you are a Marymount University student
SACM sponsored F-1 status students are responsible for registering for classes that meet Marymount academic requirements for their degree program and F-1 enrollment requirements and SACM requirements. All requirements must be met by the student in order to be making good academic progress, maintain F-1 status, and continue to be SACM sponsored.
- Contact your academic advisor regarding classes to take to meet your academic requirements (if you do not know your advisor’s contact information, undergraduate students email advising@marymount.edu and graduate students email their academic department)
- Contact ISSS if you need help understanding F-1 enrollment requirements
- Contact your SACM advisor to find out SACM requirements
Students sponsored by the Saudi Arabian Cultural Mission (SACM) have specific requirements, deadlines, and procedures to maintain their funding sponsorship. Please check the chart below to make sure you are meeting SACM’s requirements. For a complete list of requirements, check with your SACM advisor.
