A relative needs an invitation letter to obtain a visa to attend my commencement. What do I need to do?
We love when family can come and celebrate the success of their graduates in person! In order to help facilitate that, 黑洞社区 can offer a letter that you can request through our Registrar's Office that your family members can use as part of their application for a visitor's visa.
STEPS
- Please fill out this request form (SACM and Kuwait Students click here) with all of your information to be included in your letter. Under 鈥淢ail Certifications to,鈥� you do not need to fill out that information unless you want us to mail the letter directly to your parents, which will be an extra $60 charge for international FedEx. Please make sure you include your projected graduation date as well as when you would like to walk in a graduation ceremony. Next to 鈥淚nvitees/Relationship to Student,鈥� please include your family members鈥� full names and their relationship to you. You may include as many people as you would like on one letter as long as they all live at the same physical address.
- Once you have returned that form to us, please call the Registrar's Office at 316-978-3055 to give us your credit card information over the phone. We DO NOT take credit card information over email, so do not fill it out at the bottom of your form. The letter itself costs $12. If you would like to pick the letter up in-person, there is no additional charge besides that $12.
- Finally, once all of these steps have been completed, we will email you a draft of your letter to make sure everything is spelled correctly and the information we have included is correct. Once you approve that, you will be able to come pick up your letter or we will send it in the mail, depending on your preference.
