DOCUMENTS NEEDED TO OBTAIN A NEW I-20/DS-2019:
All documents must be current and attached to this request
1) CONCRETE PROOF OF FUNDING FOR ONE YEAR
(If you will be at UNM for less than one year, the amount can be pro-rated):
Undergraduates:
Tuition:
$20,813
Living Expenses: $15,156 (includes insurance)
TOTAL:
$35,969
For Dependents Add:
Graduates:
Tuition:
$16,117
Living Expenses: $15,241 (includes insurance)
TOTAL:
$31,358
$5,000 for a spouse and $2,500 per child to the expenses listed above
Students on assistantships or scholarships:
You must bring a copy of your assistantship contract or a letter from your department stating the duration and exact amount o f
your support (e.g., full tuition plus $1,000 per month stipend).
You must calculate your tuition benefit based on your individual assistantship contract or scholarship. If tuition is fully paid, you
only need to show the letter or contract for the tuition amount above. If your assistantship contract or scholarship allows you to pay
in-state tuition, then you should show proof of additional funds to cover full-time in-state tuition (12 credits for undergraduates and
6 credits for graduate students with assistantships) plus the living expense amounts listed above. See below under “Students who
are not fully financially supported by UNM” for the type of proof needed.
Monthly stipend amounts paid to you by any assistantship/scholarship will be multiplied by 10 months to reflect the academic
calendar. If you will receive your assistantship/scholarship over the summer months you must attach a copy of the summer contract
or letter from your department confirming the amount of funds you will receive for the summer. Typically, your assistantship will
also cover health insurance. If so, we will add the $700 toward your total living expenses.
Students who are not fully financially supported by UNM:
You must show concrete proof of funds for the total amount listed above. If someone else will pay for all or part of your expenses,
you must attach a letter from that person or organization stating the exact amount of the support they will provide. In addit ion to
this letter (or if you will pay for your education yourself), you must attach original proof of the promised support. Original proof
can include bank letters or bank statements (not more than 6 months old), official tax returns, or salary statements from an
employer on official company/government letterhead.
YOU MUST CALCULATE ALL OF YOUR EXPENSES AND ATTACH PROOF OF THE AMOUNTS ABOVE BEFORE SUBMITTING
THIS REQUEST!
2) FOR GRADUATE STUDENTS CHANGING LEVEL OR MAJOR ONLY:
You must bring a copy of the OGS degree change form, plus a letter from your advisor stating expected date of completion of the new program (if
you will be financially supported by the department this letter can also contain the required confirmation of funding information requested above)
3) FOR STUDENTS WHO NEED TO EXTEND THE I-20/DS-2019 TO COMPLETE THE CURRENT PROGRAM:
Attach forms from “Program Extension” handout (Available in GEO)
