Study Abroad

As an undergraduate, students need to follow the below procedure to get considered:

-Fill out the admission form: Students can fill out the international admission forms online in one go otherwise the session will expire after 20 minutes. They need to pay USD 30 (INR 2,490).

-Submit Required Documents: Original or certified certificates and grade reports of secondary and postsecondary work.

-Write personal statement: Write a page or two about your goals and reasons for why you want to get into Grand Valley State University.

-English proficiency test score: Students must satisfy the English proficiency requirements with these tests:

-Review process: The international student forms will get reviewed based on high school courses completed, cumulative grade point average, standardized test scores, grade point trend, rank in class, and other factors. After reviewing the application form, GVSU will respond in 4-5 weeks.

-Financial Support Verification: The international students and their sponsor have to sign the Financial Support Form and submit original bank statements to demonstrate the necessary amount of support is available after getting accepted from Grand Valley State University.

For graduate programs, international students need to fill in some additional requirements and application materials specific to the graduate programme along with the above.

According to unofficial sources, students who are applying for admission to GVSU must submit their application three months before the programme deadline. The Grand Valley takes four to five weeks to respond after reviewing the application. Students receive admission notification through mail. Also, the application letter includes information regarding entry, residency requirements, and particular protocols.

During admission, international students are required to register I-20 application which is provided via FedEx. Also, you need to submit the passport and financial documents including, cash deposit, certificate of deposit, term deposit, saving account, investment account, and checking accounts. 

After receiving your I-20, you can move forward to visa appointments, where you must cross-verify your details (spelling of your name, date of birth, programme of study, and funding source) and pay the SEVIS fee (I-901 Student and Exchange Visitor Information).

The Sapienza University of Rome provides special housing facilities to its students through housing agreements. These agreements are offered via different private and public rental firms. These housing facilities are available for the students who have enrolled in the university and are also provided to the students who are planning to study here.

Establishment Costs and Living Expenses

The students who are planning to live in apartment-style rooms with heating facilities and Wi-Fi can opt for the accommodation facilities provided by DoveVivo. The students who wish to live on campus with all the facilities like WIFI, heating, air conditioners, etc., can opt to live in the Campus college room. The Fondazione RUI University offers four discounted places for the international students of Sapienza. There are other accommodation options available too, and the accommodation costs can vary anywhere between EUR 350 and EUR 1,200 depending upon the place and facilities you want.

Note: Rent charges can vary due to the various external and internal factors and can include extra charges as well. To know the exact prices of the rooms and related services, please refer to the university's official portal.

The chances of getting into Sapienza depend on numerous factors like a student's academic grades, English proficiency scores (if the student is from a non-English speaking country), admission test scores, etc. The quality of education provided in this university is good, and therefore, most of the preference will be given to students with good grades and scores in the admission tests.

The good thing is that it is far easier to apply to the programmes of Sapienza than many European universities. Also, as this university can enrol thousands of international students every year, it shouldn't be that hard to get into it if you have the necessary background and scores.
