For Students enrolling in:
Before you can schedule a visa interview, you will first need to submit your SEVIS Form I-20 application. If it is approved, International Student Services will send your SEVIS Form I-20 to you, along with instructions to schedule and prepare for your visa interview.
The application process for the SEVIS Form I-20 and F-1 Student Visa can take several weeks, so it is extremely important for students to be prepared and plan ahead.
NOTE: Students must be formally admitted before the SEVIS Form I-20 document can be issued. Students that are conditionally admitted cannot receive a SEVIS Form I-20 until they have completed their files with the Office of Admission and have been formally admitted.
Summer English Study (SES) students take classes Monday through Friday for at least four hours each day.
Classes focus on four skills: listening, speaking, reading, and writing. The Summer English Study (SES) program was especially designed for musicians; SES students study the special English of music.
In addition to attending classes, Summer English Study (SES) students have fun one-on-one meetings with current MSM students and alumni. These meetings give SES students the time to practice their conversational English skills and to learn more about New York City.
All meetings are conducted in English.
