STUDENT INSURANCE

Good health is essential to achieving educational goals. Because maintaining good health requires access to health care when you need it, ALI strongly advises all students to acquire it to protect them from the consequences or risks of not having adequate coverage while studying in the United States. The health insurance coverage is, one of the most important investments an international student will make while studying abroad. ATLANTIS University and ALI has selected IFS (see link) insurance plan because it offers a comprehensive plan for students with reasonable rates. ATLANTIS Language Institute will verify the health coverage status during the enrollment process, making sure that students are totally aware of the consequences of not having this important coverage while in the USA.

I-20 Information

The I-20 is a multi-purpose document issued by a government approved, U.S. educational institution certifying that you have been admitted to a full-time study program and that you have demonstrated sufficient financial resources to stay in the U.S. The I-20 is officially titled the Certificate of Eligibility because with it you are “eligible” to apply for an F-1 student visa at a U.S. embassy or consulate abroad. Your spouse or children will also each need their own I-20 to obtain F-2 dependent status, if desired. Getting the I-20 from a U.S. school is not enough to become a legal F-1 student; you must also be allowed entry to the U.S. as an F-1, or be approved for a change of status from another type of nonimmigrant visa. Immigration regulations governing the F-1 status are listed on page 2 of the I-20. It is important that F-1 students read this page to understand the rules that apply to their stay in the U.S.

After a school completes their admissions process, the admitted students’ names and other biographic information are entered into a U.S. government database called SEVIS (Student and Exchange Visitor Information System). The SEVIS database processes the information and produces a “PDF” file of the I-20 that is sent back to the school via the internet. The school official (called the Designated School Official or DSO) prints and signs the I-20 and then delivers it to the student. If a student needs to update or change information on the I-20, the DSO makes these requests through SEVIS and the document can be easily reproduced.
After receiving an I-20 from their school, an international student must make an appointment to apply for the F-1 visa at the local U.S. embassy or consulate in their country. The visa is the document needed to be allowed entry into the U.S.. The student must present both the F-1 visa and the I-20 to a U.S. Immigration inspector upon arrival at the port-of-entry.
If you will be traveling abroad and then returning to the U.S. to resume your studies, you must take your I-20 with you. The I-20 is required to reapply for a visa if you need one and for re-entering the U.S. Before your departure from the U.S., make sure that you have an unexpired travel endorsement from an Adviser at Atlantis International y Office. This signature is valid for one year for multiple visits outside the U.S. In most cases, a travel endorsement can be done quickly and easily at the Atlantis University International Office.
This is an estimate of time the University feels it may take you to fulfill all degree requirements. However, if you are not able to finish your program on that date, you must request an extension from the Atlantis International Office at least one month before the completion date expires. Your actual completion date may not necessarily be the day of your graduation ceremony or the date on your I-20 (In fact, many students actually finish their degree requirements before the completion date on their I-20).Undergraduate StudentsYour completion date is considered to be the last day of final exams of the semester your degree requirements are fulfilled.Graduate StudentsYour completion date is the day on which all degree requirements are fulfilled, such as filing the thesis or dissertation in the Graduate Division. If you do not have a research component to your degree program (such as in the MBA program or other professional schools), your completion date would be the last day of final exams of the semester your degree requirements are fulfilled.

ESL 1

This course is intended for beginners. These students initially have limited or no understanding of English. They rarely use English for communication. Their use of the language is very limited and grammatically inaccurate, mostly. Throughout the course, they will progressively try to answer spontaneously to simple commands and questions using single words or simple phrases. Through this course, the student should understand and accept the process of communicating in another language; how to build vocabulary and use a dictionary, principles for correct pronunciation and vocalization. There will be an interactive relation with the basic skills of the language: listening/understanding, speaking, reading/comprehension, writing, and a necessary cross-cultural awareness. The course will provide with functional vocabulary, basic grammatical explanations and a close approach to accurate pronunciation.

ESL 2

This course is intended for High beginners. Starting this level, students communicate limited information in simple day to day situations using simple phrases that have been mostly memorized. They appear to understand more while they listen, but they still produce limited answers using very basic grammar patterns. Overall communication still lacks of adequate idea sequencing. The basic skills already acquired in ESL 1 plus the intensive practice provided in this course will progressively take the students to enhance their listening/understanding skills. Better comprehensive oral expression starts developing, too. Vocabulary should grow consistent with reading/comprehension skills. With the successful accomplishment of this course, the students will move on towards an Intermediate level of communication in the English language.

ESL 3

This course is intended for students entering an intermediate level of proficiency. At this level, the listening-comprehension skills still require consistent practice on repetition. Students become more spontaneous while expressing their thoughts, but with limited vocabulary. Their oral expression is simple, comprehensible and mostly appropriate, but they still make grammatical errors. They’ll progressively show higher comprehension of written texts, and growing writing skills. They may find easier to understand what others say, but they still may not elaborate proper full answers. They can read with more confidence, but yet their vocabulary needs to build up stronger and the ability to detect main ideas and other elements needs much more training.

ESL 4

This course is intended for students whose current level of proficiency allows them to deliver appropriate communication skills, on expected and even unexpected scenarios as adequate listening and understanding skills are mostly developed. However, even though their vocabulary is stronger at this point, it may be hard for them to easily handle complex structures and abstract concepts. Reading skills are stronger, too, and most students show easier comprehension of the text. Nonetheless, they may face uncomfortable challenges when dealing with complex sentence structures and unusual contextualized facts.

ESL 5

ESL 5 is prepared for students who wish or need to perform with more advanced level of proficiency in the oral and written modes. At this level, students’ errors go minimized; they feel comfortable when expressing themselves, they can manage adequate communication on a wide variety of contexts. They feel able to act within a native speakers’ environment with much confidence. Students show good command of daily and even technical vocabulary. Idiomatic expressions are very familiar, too. Their goal is to command deeper language structures with fluency, and as accurate as possible.
