Be on the lookout for an email from webadmin@owu.edu within 24 hours. The email will guide you through the process of setting up your OWU email account which will allow you to register for housing, receive future communication and much more.
We will be submitting all of your documents to the International and Off-Campus Programs Office for final approval and issuance of the I-20. Once received, they can issue the I-20 form within a few days, although slight delays could occur during periods when the University is closed.
Ms Dede Shine, our Assistant Director of International and Off-Campus Programs office, will process the I-20. She will contact you directly should she have any questions and when the I-20 is ready to be sent by email. She will also provide the SEVIS ID number to allow your payment of the SEVIS fee and to make an appointment. The I-20 document will also be sent by email.
If you have any questions about the I-20 process or visa issues, please contact Ms Shine directly at djshine@owu.edu.
By U.S. law, we cannot issue the SEVIS Form I-20 until we receive authoritative documentation that you have adequate support for your education for the first year. This is for your benefit as well as ours. It would be unfortunate for you to have to interrupt your education because of a lack of financial support.
It's important that you know that Ohio Wesleyan takes this certification of finances very seriously. Providing false information can jeopardize your status as a non-immigrant as well as your status as a student at Ohio Wesleyan.
You, your parents, or your sponsor may contact us anytime to receive answers to questions and concerns.
