is just amazing. Every
methodology class is full
of specific tips to make
a class meaningful and
effective. Moreover, all
teachers have extensive experience. They
always encourage me and never let me down.

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. Custom
Designed Programs with less than 18 instruction hours per week do not require an I-20 or an F-1 student visa.
See http://www.iep.ucr.edu/apply/ for more details.
Am I required to purchase health insurance through IEP?
Yes, you are required to purchase the UC Extension Student Injury and Sickness insurance plan, even if you have your
own policy. U.S. citizens and permanent residents are exempt; however, they must provide proof of insurance
