<p>Why does Skidmore College not ask for an International Financial Certification from the international applicants like almost all other colleges?</p>
<p>Probably because they don’t need it yet. Colleges are required to verify your financial resources before issuing visa documents, but that’s still a fair while into the future. Some colleges want the Certification of Finances with the initial application. Other colleges will wait until after students have decided where to enroll.</p>
