For visiting students

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) 1 Do I need an I-20?

You need an I-20 if you come for any program with 18+ hours of instruction per week. An I-20 is issued by UCR IEP after you’ve been accepted. You use it to apply for an F-1 student visa at your local consulate/embassy.

Yes, you are required to purchase the UC Extension Student Injury and Sickness insurance plan, even if you have your own policy.
