International students must have sufficient finances to cover all living and educational expenses incurred while at Miami Dade as verified by a certified official bank letter. International students’ funds must be available for withdrawal from a U.S. bank or other source prior to the first day of class, to cover all living and educational expenses for the first twelve (12) months of study in the U.S. at MDC. Additional funds must also be available on a continuous basis to assure adequate financing during the student’s entire educational stay in the United States.
Documentary evidence of means of financial support must be attached to the Certificate of Eligibility (Form 1-20) when applying for the student visa at the U.S. Embassy or Consular Office.
The College does not provide student housing, and students should arrive in Miami at least one month prior to the first day of classes to allow time for testing, registration and to locate suitable housing in the Miami area. Students should be prepared to pay three months rent in advance at the time housing is located in Miami. Health insurance is required and may cost approximately $1,500 per year.
