Cambrian International Academy (CIA)

International Students (I-20 visas)

Our highly versatile faculty can accommodate Korean, French, Spanish, and Arabic languages. Our Broadband ESL program is focused on mainstreaming our international students within one year of admission. After mainstreaming, international students continue to receive support from our foreign language experts, delivering the best of both worlds in academic and cultural education--preparing 21st century students to successfully compete in a global economy.

International Student Application

Upon receiving an application from a prospective student, Cambrian Academy determines if the student fully meets our criteria for admission and has adequate funds to meet the expenses of the program of study.

Initial Paperwork Supporting Documentation from previous foreign school:
  • Academic Records
  • Verification of Name and date of Birth
  • Standardized Test Information

Signed Tuition Agreement

Once a student has met the standards for admission, we record specific biographical and financial information about the student in SEVIS that will be necessary to issue a Form I-20, "Certificate of Eligibility for Nonimmigrant Student."

For more information, and to apply, please contact our International Director: Kay Kim

We also accept International Middle School students.

Why do we place such an emphasis on mainstreaming our ESL students? The article below says it all.

  Eye on Curriculum 
  • Are immigrant students too isolated?
    English-language learners are one of the only groups still largely segregated from their peers at school. While grateful to their schools for teaching them English, some immigrant students say they wish they were not so isolated in intensive English programs meant to help them acquire language skills quickly in order to prepare for state tests.
