拿到PHD offer 的XDJM 拿到I20没？

问下大家 如题

学校给了 $20，000 但INTERNATIONAL OFFICE LETTER 上生活费要$27，000 多 ， 看来自己还要想办法提供资金证明 是吧？

大家的情况是怎么样的现在？

谢谢

I think you need to give them a financial proof of $7,000.

In NYC, I would expect your living expense to be around $1,200/month for a decent life. After tax refund, $20,000 might leave you $18,800. After insurance and fees, it might be $17,000. So, you still have bit more savings.

Check Craigslist to gain some ideas regarding the rent market. Basically, rent might be $700 (not for studio or 1 bedroom though) for a decent sharing, obviously you can squeeze yourself to save money. Metro Card is $76, cell phone is $50, and food expense varies. NYC is the best location to buy fashionable dress, but you cannot fina an outlet.

LZ I-20上写的是从什么时间起算是PHD学校的学生啊。

我就不知道现在拿新的I-20是不是说现在SEVIS里的资料就可以转走了？

是 我刚才才意识到这个问题

突然觉得现在不应该I20

但我SUMMER 要回家 不知道怎么办 乱乱的！

SEVIS是什么啊?

我可能要5月中下旬才能收到I20.时间挺紧张的.

ADI

是这边记录I20的系统！ 你不涉及这个问题 ， 只要学校不需要你提供资金证明 签证应该不是问题！

拿到I20 就预约 时间来的急的！

Highwaystar 怎么ARGUE 的啊 找谁啊？ 我觉得他们太不合理了！ 找PHD PROGRAM 里的人吧 ？ 谢谢撒！

I think it really depends.

For I-20, there are some technical tricks involved. As a matter of fact, you only need to prove 2 terms' tuition and 9 months' living expense, insteas of 12 months, as the summer can be excluded.

However, I don't think it is worth taking advantage of such tricks. 6000-7000 is not a big deal, dudes.
