Document background
The International Student Course Agreement serves as the primary contractual document between U.S. educational institutions and international students. This agreement is essential for establishing clear expectations, ensuring compliance with U.S. immigration laws, and protecting both parties' interests. It addresses crucial aspects such as program requirements, financial obligations, visa compliance, and institutional responsibilities. The document is particularly important given the complex regulatory environment surrounding international education in the United States, including SEVP requirements, FERPA compliance, and state-specific education laws.
