Special Note for Citizens of Canada
Citizens of Canada are not required to obtain a U.S. visa to enter the United States. However, a U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officer will inspect your papers, either at a pre-inspection site in Canada or upon entry to the United States. You must have with you:
- proof of Canadian citizenship
- your admission letter to Binghamton
- proof of Federal SEVIS Fee Payment
- your Saint Mary’s College Certificate of Eligibility (I-20 or DS-2019)
- proof of financial support that corresponds to the information on your I-20 or DS-2019
It is essential that you enter the United States in the appropriate status, so be sure to have complete documentation with you.
