Visa Information
A visa is not required to enter and stay in your host country for the duration of your intensive program. However, you must have a United States passport signed and valid at least through February 2011.
- If you do not have a passport, please apply for one immediately. Passports can take 4 to 6 weeks to process, so it is important you apply, or renew (if your passport is expired or about to expire) right away.
- You may ask for passport applications at the main post office in your community, or check http://www.travel.state.gov online for more information on how to apply for, or renew, your passport.
- You may have to request a rush/expedited service at an additional cost if you delay in applying. If you are under the age of 16, your parents/legal guardians must be present when you apply.
- If you are not a U.S. citizen/passport-holder please contact AFS right away. Non-U.S. citizens may require additional documentation.
Do not forget to bring your signed passport with you to Orientation!
