Valor does not provide any type of financial assistance or scholarships. The financial requirements consist of completing the Financial Certification Form and the Affidavit of Support (only completed when the student will have someone else support him or her during his or her time in the United States). Both of these documents need to be notarized and accompanied by appropriate documentation.
International students are ineligible to work off campus while studying in the United States. On-campus employment is limited to 20 hours a week. Employment is not guaranteed. On-campus employment may not be used as a source of income when filling out Affidavit of Sponsorship/Financial Certification Form. Spouses of international students are not permitted to hold any type of employment while in the U.S. Hence, all international applicants must show proof of financial support for each year of enrollment at Valor Christian College.
All international students must be full-time (12+ credit hours per semester). The amounts listed below are subject to change without notice.
Health Insurance is highly recommended but not required as a condition of enrollment for International students. The cost listed is approximate and may vary with each individual student. All single applicants age 34 and younger are required to stay in the residence halls. Married couples are not allowed to live on campus.
