International Students

Welcome to Savannah State University, home to a growing population of international students. Whether you are looking to start or complete your bachelor's degree or one of our challenging master's degree programs, we know that you will be filled with new challenges and opportunities that will help you achieve your academic goals.

Savannah State University has students from Ghana, Burkina Faso, Nigeria, Ivory Coast, Jamaica, Canada, The Bahamas, Austria, France, India, Ukraine, Columbia, Trinidad & Tobago, Russia, Tunisia, Canada and South Korea and has an active International Student's Association .

International students wishing to attend Savannah State on an F-1 visa or who will need an F-1 visa to study in the US must complete a supplemental application (available below). Students who do not need an I-20 should complete the regular admissions application.

You must be able to provide documentation that you can have funds to cover at least one year of the costs of educational and living expenses.

Undergradute tuition and fees

International students are allowed to work on campus, but there is no guarantee that employment opportunities will be available and the earnings from these positions will not provide a significant means of support.

International students do not qualify for federal or state financial aid. Savannah State University does offer a limited number of Out of State tuition waivers to undergraduate students. These waivers allow the recipient to pay in state tuition rates. The number of waivers varies each year and the competition for them is tough. International Students are strongly encouraged to search for additional scholarship opportunities.

Capture the Power of International Education

A global not-for-profit established in 1919, IIE is the first private organization facilitating international exchanges. We create and implement international education programs, conduct research, and provide life-changing opportunities for students, scholars, and artists worldwide.

What Would it Take?

Allan Goodman and Mirka Martel map key trends in academic mobility to the United States and compare annual findings to 2030 projections. What would it take to further expand student mobility?

Find a Program

IIE manages more than 200 programs with participants from more than 180 countries. In the last year alone, more than 29,000 people participated in IIE managed programs. Use our program finder to explore opportunities.

Our regional expertise and global presence help us create a better tomorrow for individuals around the world

Our network of offices and affiliates around the world is led by talented and dedicated international education experts who implement initiatives driven by key regional needs as well as the goals of our sponsors.

In the aftermath of World War I, the Institute of International Education (IIE) first began its work by organizing student exchanges with several European governments as well as faculty and teacher exchanges.

The Americas

Managing international education exchange programs in the Western Hemisphere since its earliest days of operation, IIE has over the past 90 years opened additional offices throughout the United States and Latin America to serve this region.

Building Education Networks Across Africa

IIE delivers programs and works with global universities in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region, reaching over 7,000 students, scholars, and professionals. As a result of IIE’s partnerships with corporations, international governments, ministries, foundations, and the U.S. government, thousands of students, scholars, and professionals from the region have gained access to the world’s leading higher education and training programs.

Sub Saharan Africa

IIE has had a presence in Sub-Saharan Africa that spans over 30 years, and implements a range of programs to build leadership capacity and expand access to higher education in the region. With its office in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, and extensive history working in the region, IIE has a strong set of programs in leadership development, organizational effectiveness, and higher education scholarship administration. 

South and Central Asia

Working closely with businesses, governments, and non-governmental organizations in the South and Central Asia region, IIE has developed and implemented a strong set of activities in higher education scholarship administration, leadership development, and critical development fields, including energy.

East Asia and the Pacific

IIE’s first-hand knowledge of local educational communities as well as decades of experience working with people from all backgrounds and cultures in East Asia and the Pacific have enabled us to cultivate a broad network of relationships among government, non-profit, and academic sectors.

A Network Building the Future of Education

IIE members, alumni, and our social media group help elevate ideas and build support for international education.

Worldwide Presence In Over 85 Countries

From the South Pacific to the North Atlantic, IIE provides programs, development, research, and crisis support to everyone in international education.
