International Students
Here’s how to get started
Holy Names University warmly welcomes international students to our community! We strive to provide a cross-cultural educational experience for both international and domestic students at HNU. The resources on this page will help you begin.
International applicants are individuals who are citizens of a country other than the United States and need a visa in order to study or live in the US. If you are a US citizen or a permanent resident of the US, regardless of where you go to school, you are not considered an international applicant. International students are required to obtain an F-1 Visa to study at HNU. Upon acceptance, the University will issue an I-20 form, which will allow the student to apply for the F-1 visa. Holy Names University has authorization under federal law to enroll non-immigrant alien students.
International students are important members of the HNU community. Each one of them brings a unique perspective and an infusion of culture to campus. Meet a few of our international students and alumni.

HNU is very welcoming. From my first day here, I was supported and helped with anything I needed. The diverse community has given me the chance to connect with people from many different backgrounds.
