This information is necessary to determine whether or not you have sufficient and verifiable funding to consider study at Principia College. Please include signatures where appropriate, especially where a family member, or other individual is certifying a commitment to finance you, the applicant. The applicant must sign the form at the bottom for it to be valid. All funds that will be available to finance you while you are a student at Principia College should be included on this form. The United States government requires that Principia College be able to verify such information before issuing a student visa.
Financial needs including transportation costs and other factors vary for each individual.
Past situations have shown that it is wise not to underestimate your budget. International students who have already studied in the United States have emphasized this point to Principia. All students are required to wire personal funds to Principia in advance of receiving visa forms. The total amount a student indicates in the Assured Support First Year column on the Certification of Finances form must be wired to Principia prior to visa papers being issued. Details of wiring money to Principia will be provided in a letter to the student upon acceptance.
