Explanation of Non-Northeastern Funding for J-1 Sponsorship (Read carefully):
Funding from sources other than Northeastern (private sponsor, government funding, scholarships, personal funds, etc.) will be
considered towards meeting the NU minimum funding requirements, with the following restrictions:
1) All documentation must be translated into English; currency must be clearly referenced and converted into USD.
2) Documentation must be originals or copies of originals (note that the U.S. Consulate requires original documentation
during the visa process).
3) Financial institution documentation, such as bank statements or letters, must include the name of the scholar, must be
recent, and cannot be older than 9 months upon receipt by the OGS.
Note: The scholar is permitted to use financial support by family members provided that the following is submitted:
a) Financial institution documentation, such as bank statements or letters, including name of the financial sponsor;
documentation must be recent, and not older than 9 months upon receipt by the OGS.
b) A letter signed by the financial sponsor attesting that the scholar is entitled to the funds in the sponsor’s account
4) In cases in which the documentation reflects a range in funding, the OGS will use the lowest figure in the range unless
the scholar provides a letter from the funding source indicating otherwise.
Note: The OGS retains the right to request original documentation or other means of clarification.
I certify that the above information is complete, accurate, and true. I take full financial responsibility for all of my and my
dependents’ expenses.
