Welcome International First-Time, First-Year Students!
We are honored that you are considering San José State University to further your
education. As an international First-Time, First-Year applicant (formerly known as
a freshman), you are a citizen of another country who would like to pursue a bachelor's
degree, have not yet attended a college or university, and require an F-1 visa or
J-1 visa to study in the U.S. To connect with a pre-admissions counselor or take a
campus tour, visit the Student Outreach and Recruitment office at sjsu.edu/SOAR.
Check application and document deadlines, as well as deadlines for completing academic
requirements and submitting a housing application to live on campus.
