Arrival in the U.S.

J-1 Exchange Visitor Program

Overview Information for J-1 Scholars and Student Interns

Welcome to the University of Colorado Denver | Anschutz Medical Campus. You will join nearly 1,500 international students and scholars from almost 100 countries. We hope that your time here will be both rewarding and supportive of your personal and professional goals.

Now that you have received Form(s) DS-2019, paid the SEVIS fee, applied for J-1 and J-2 entry visas (citizens of Canada and Bermuda are exempt), and made travel arrangements, the information below will prepare you for arriving in the U.S. and the first steps after you arrive.

J-1 transfer-in scholars do not pay the SEVIS fee again or apply for visa if they do not travel. ISSS issues the DS-2019(s) after the transfer release date.
