    Calvary Day School policy requires that any international student interested in attending Calvary reside locally with a parent, stepparent, or legal guardian. Additionally, international students have the option to live with a host family, though it's important to note that Calvary is not affiliated with any international student programs that facilitate the admission process.

    Additionally, the I-20 process will be started once the student has been enrolled. Once the student has been enrolled, Calvary can issue the student’s I-20. International students are subject to an international student fee. International students will also pay a SEVIS fee online to Customs & Immigration when they apply for their visa.

    If your child is a non-U.S. citizen and you meet the criteria above, please follow the application process as a domestic applicant through the Calvary admission process. Please call the Admission Office at (912) 351-0700 if you have any questions.
