<p>Now I always thought that for international students you gave in all your application material and when you got into a school and you want to go there, you send a financial statement/bank form saying that you have the money, and this then gives you your student visa.(i got into suny binghamton and this is what they say as well)</p>
<p>BUT looking at the websites from u of rochester and johns hopkins, im a bit unsure. They apparantly (like UNC) require a financial statement along with my application, not when im saying that i will attend and ask for my visa. I'm not sure i understood correctly what is written on the websites (or maybe i did). Im applying to virginia,emory,rice,duke,vanderbilt as well....is it true for these schools as well because i always thought the bank statement came afterwards...or did something change????</p>
<p>Please help...im very confused...boohoo</p>
