Congratulations on your acceptance to DePaul University! We are glad that DePaul University is your school of choice! The International Student Office staff looks forward to meeting you and assisting you during your studies at DePaul University.

Prior to your arrival to the United States, you will be very busy preparing for your departure from your country. You will need to obtain a student visa, buy an airline ticket, arrange for transfer of funds, pack, say goodbye to your friends and family…You might be feeling excited, nervous and sad all at the same time. There are so many tasks to complete and very little time!

Please read the Pre-Arrival Checklist to help you organize your departure preparations.

We hope that the information within these pages will help you plan for your arrival in the United States. Again, welcome to DePaul University!
