I-20 Application
The Form I-20 establishes a student's eligibility to study in the United States. It is issued by schools that are approved to participate in the Student and Exchange Visitor Program (SEVP), which is managed by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. As an SEVP-approved school, the University of Memphis is authorized to issue a Form I-20 to students who have been accepted for admission.
If you have been accepted for admission at the University of Memphis, how you apply for your I-20 will depend on your current immigration status. Please read the information below and select the option that best describes your current status.
