An international student is a student who is required to be registered under the federal Student and Exchange Visitor Information System (SEVIS).
International students usually need an F-1 or J-1 visa to enter the United State to study. Once they are in the U.S., it is relatively easy for them to transfer to Bemidji State.
If you are in the United States on a temporary visa other than F1 or J1 visa and would like to study at BSU as an F-1 or J-1 student, please contact the International Program Center by phone at (218) 755-4096 or by email at international@freoreport.net
