What type of visiting student am I?
Depending on your visa and future plans for your education, you'll have different requirements as an international student.
Special Student
You want to take a few classes at IU Indianapolis for personal or professional growth, but not to earn a degree. You will need to fulfill all the requirements for regular admission to IU Indianapolis. If you are currently on B-1 or B-2 visa, then you must submit the B Study Restrictions form with your application to certify you understand the limitations to enrollment.
Transient Student
You attend a U.S. university and will remain enrolled there while also taking course(s) at IU Indianapolis, or plan to return to your home institution after taking course(s) during a summer term at IU Indianapolis. If you are on an F-1 or J-1 visa, you will not need to provide financial documentation for immigration documents.
Visiting/Exchange Program Students
You are participating in an official IU Indianapolis visiting student/exchange program based on special program arrangements between your home institution and IU Indianapolis. You will need to follow the admission processes stipulated by the agreement that governs enrollment at IU Indianapolis. First check with your exchange or program advisor at your home institution for guidance on the application process, requirements, and deadlines.
