How to Apply

Download and complete the ESL Program application form and return it to us by mail. It is best to apply as early as possible so you will have time to receive your Form I-20 from UWSP and schedule your visa interview with the U.S. consulate in your area.

To apply please mail or courier the following required items to the ESL Program Office:

  • A completed and signed ESL Program Application for Admission form (don't forget to complete the "UWSP Housing Policies & Room Assignment Questionnaire" on the back of the application form.
  • An original (not photocopied) statement, in English or with certified translation, of the equivalent of a U.S. high school diploma or higher degree
  • An original (not photocopied) bank statement showing proof of available funds for your tuition, fees, and living expenses for at least two 8-week sessions (see page 2 of the application form for details)
  • A photocopy of the photo page from your current passport
  • The non-refundable ESL Program application fee of USD $100 (please make your check payable to: UWSP ESL Program)
