International students must provide complete and accurate documentation of sufficient funds in order to qualify for a student visa. The total of these funds must cover the cost of the first year of school, books and living expenses. Official bank statements as proof of liquid assets are required to document sufficient funds. A signed letter of support is required if the bank statement/account proving to required funds is not in your name.
The amount required to cover expenses for the first year is dependent upon the program of study and listed below. If you have dependents who will apply for F-2 Visas, the cost of living expenses for the spouse and/or children must be provided. The current cost of living per each dependent is listed on the 1-20 Financial Documentation Worksheet.
Federal laws require that international students maintain adequate health insurance while attending Bastyr University. All admitted F-1 students will be required to purchase coverage through Bastyr University or submit a waiver form providing documentation of comparable insurance coverage valid in the United States for the duration of study.
