Arriving on Campus

• To reserve your place, undergraduate students should submit a $100 enrollment deposit, which will be applied to your first-semester fees, at marian.edu/deposit. Deposits are refundable on written request if received before May 1 (for fall admission) and December 1 (for spring admission). Deposits may be paid online through the MUHUB Student Portal.

• Student visa applicants must pay a SEVIS fee. For F-1 visa applications, the fee is $350. If you are transferring to Marian University from another U.S. school and have already paid this fee, you do not need to pay again. If you are transferring to Marian University from another U.S. school within 5 months, you do not need to pay the fee again.
• Pay online with credit card on the I-901 fee website or by check, money order, or bank draft.
• Print your I-901 fee receipt and keep a copy for your records. You may need to present proof of payment at your visa appointment, when traveling to the U.S., or when applying for F-1 benefits such as off-campus work options.
• For information, review the SEVIS Fee Payment Tutorial.

After you have the SEVIS fee receipt, you can apply for an F-1 visa at your nearest U.S. Embassy or Consulate. Please note that Canadian citizens do not need to obtain a visa; instead they obtain their immigration status when crossing the U.S. border. Please see the visa application web page for more information.
