International Students
International students, representing 105 countries, comprise nearly 25% of UD's graduate population. Some of our top countries include China, India, and Korea. Around the world you‚ will find them, too, traveling by moped through the jungles of Sumatra to document and save endangered languages, plunging to the floor of the Pacific Ocean in a submersible to study how life can thrive in a deep, dark world, documenting 18th-century churches in Brazil, and learning international business skills in a joint program with the Grenoble Graduate School of Business at the foot of the French Alps.
Once you have been admitted by your academic department AND the Office of Graduate & Professional Education you will recieve your I-20 as long as you have been able to provide evidence of sufficient financial funding ( UD support or family and/or personal funds). This form normally is included in your admission packet if we have recieved the appropriate information.
If you are in the U.S. on an F1 or F2 student visa, a J1 or J2 exchange visitor visa, or a G series visa (pertaining to international organizations), you are not eligible for scholarships through the Office of Financial Aid.
Yes. Check the Office of Housing Assignment Services for more information and costs.
International students can only work off-campus as part of their Curricular Practical Training (CPT) or if they can prove economic hardship. For more information about CPT or Off-Campus Employment Based on Economic Hardship go here.
