Online Programs

International students applying for an online program that does not require travel to the US will not be issued an I-20. These students do not have to provide the Financial Responsiblity statement or proof of immunization.

International students applying for online programs (such as Rehabilitation of the Blind or Rehabilitation Counseling) that require on-campus workshops will need to contact their program coordinator and the Office of International Student Services (501-569-3582) prior to registering for courses requiring travel to the US.

International students already in the US or planning to live in the US should contact the program coordinator before applying for an online program.
