Visa and Immigration Services

While Atlantic Gateway College’s diploma programs are delivered fully online (students typically do not require a visa to study remotely), many students plan to continue their education at partner universities in the USA after completing their AGC programs. Our Visa and Immigration Services support students transitioning to on-campus studies in America, assisting with international administrative matters throughout their AGC studies.

No Study Permit Required for AGC Online

AGC’s fully online format means you don’t need an American or Canadian study permit or visa to enroll. You can start your education immediately from your home country, saving significant time and cost related to visa applications.

Transition to Partner Universities in the USA

If you plan to transfer to one of our U.S. partner universities to complete your bachelor’s degree on campus, you will require a U.S. student visa (F-1 visa). Our team supports you with:

Information Sessions and Workshops : We provide detailed workshops explaining the U.S. F-1 student visa application process, including required documents, timelines, and procedures.
Documentation Support : AGC assists by ensuring you receive admission letters from partner universities, issuing official transcripts or diploma completion certificates, and providing supporting documentation to strengthen your visa application.
Financial Guidance : We guide you through preparing required financial documentation (such as bank statements or education loans) necessary for obtaining your U.S. student visa.
Application Assistance : Our team helps review your visa application forms, ensuring completeness. We offer a comprehensive checklist covering passport validity, photographs, and required documents like financial evidence or medical exams.
Visa Interview Preparation : We provide interview coaching, including mock interviews, tips, and best practices to effectively communicate your study intentions and strengthen your application.

Support for International AGC Students

Even though AGC studies are online, we assist students studying outside their home country with administrative services:

Enrollment Verification Letters : We issue enrollment confirmation letters to support visa or residency status requirements abroad, such as military deferrals or proof of study.
Visitor Visa Support for Campus Events : If you wish to attend optional in-person workshops or graduation ceremonies in the U.S. or Canada, we provide invitation letters to support visitor visa applications.
Advice for Those Considering Further Studies in the USA : We clarify visa and immigration pathways for students considering further studies or exploration in the U.S. after completing their AGC online diploma.

Immigration Consultants Referral

For complex immigration cases, AGC maintains a referral network of certified immigration consultants and lawyers specializing in U.S. student immigration processes. We connect students needing specialized support with reliable professionals.

Staying Compliant

We educate our students on maintaining valid visa status in the U.S., emphasizing compliance requirements such as enrollment status, authorized working hours, and legal residence conditions, ensuring students remain informed and compliant throughout their academic journey.
