I understand that if English is not my native language,1 I must take the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL). I understand that if I am admitted to the university, I may be tested again for my English proficiency prior to registration at the university. On the basis of these scores, I understand I will be placed in the appropriate English courses for international students. I understand that I must make my own arrangements for housing. (To reserve a room in a University of Houston dormitory, I must apply to the director of housing several months before the semester begins.) I have read and understand all admission procedures. I understand that all documents and materials relating to my admission should be forwarded to the Office of Admissions. I also understand that the $75 U.S. application fee is not refundable and that my application will not be processed without the fee. I understand that I must give written permission to the University of Houston for anyone other than myself to request information about the status of my application and/or admission status. I understand that if I am unable to attend the University of Houston for the semester in which I am approved, a written request and an additional application fee may be required in order to update my file. I understand that I must submit an official, translated syllabus or course description of all course work taken at a foreign university or college by the application deadline in order to insure a transfer evaluation during my first enrolled semester. I understand that I must arrive in time to attend the one-week orientation for nonimmigrant international students; the cost of the orientation is $50 U.S. I understand that I must pay the international student insurance fee for medical/hospitalization coverage. Exemptions are made only for those with proof of a currently valid policy showing a minimum of $50,000 U.S. coverage, including insurance for repatriation and medical evacuation. I understand that I should have $19,350 U.S. available for my first year of study. This amount includes living expenses for 12 months. If attending summer school, add $4,000 for summer tuition. Of this amount, I must have a minimum of $6,000 U.S. in my possession to meet initial expenses when I arrive in Houston. I am advised to carry this in the form of travelers checks. These figures are subject to change with out notification. I understand that I must accept visa restrictions which prohibit off-campus employment. I understand that I should arrive in Houston on or before the date specified on the I-20 form or DS-2019. If I cannot arrive on time, I must request in writing that my application be considered for a subsequent semester and I may be requested to pay an additional fee. I understand that I must allow a minimum five weeks processing time. I understand that the University of Houston may release a portion or all of my record to any of the UH campuses. I understand if I do not attend, the University of Houston will maintain my documents for one academic year. I understand that all of my documents become the property of the University of Houston.
