Obtaining I-20
If you are admitted to SJSU, your I-20 will be emailed to you. If you are currently attending an institution within the U.S. you will need to have your SEVIS record transferred [pdf].
Admission Appeals
In the case that you do not meet the admission requirements or do not meet the impaction criteria for the term you have applied, you will be sent a message/letter with details on the appeals process. This message is time-sensitive so it is important that you check your MySJSU regularly.
