Are you a non-U.S. citizen interested in attending college on a F-1 visa?

Harper College welcomes you to explore the options available. You bring a wealth of academic, cultural and life experience to our campus. We invite you to continue your education by enrolling in rigorous courses while making lifelong friends, learning about other cultures, and sharing your own insights with students who come from more than 50 countries throughout the world! To know a little more about the U.S. community college model, please view this short video created by EducationUSA. 

We will help you get started on your U.S. American college education by assisting you with admissions, immigration, culture, and additional academic advising. It is still possible to take some classes online from your home countries. Please let us know if this is something that interests you.
