Before you begin

Before you begin the online application process, please make sure you have collected all the necessary information and documents. You will need the applicant’s complete information and at least one parent’s complete information. This includes names, birthdates, addresses, etc. Required documents (see below) must be submitted as a single file, PDF or JPEG files only, and less than 10MB each. If any document is larger than 10MB, it has been scanned at too high a resolution and must be rescanned at a lower resolution before beginning the application process.

 

The application fee is $500 for the 2024-2025 academic school years and is non-refundable.

PLEASE NOTE: Homestay letters will NOT be dispersed until the NBISP Participation Terms document has been signed and page two of the Custodial document has been signed, notarized, and returned.
