Next Steps for Admitted International Students

 

After you have been admitted to Minnesota State University as an Intensive English, Bachelor's, Master's or Doctoral student, you will find information on receiving your I-20 and other pre-arrival information through our KIC Portal. 

When the I-20 Request Link is ready for distribution, admitted students will receive an email invitation with the request link in their new MavMAIL account. The email invitation will provide you with a link to join the KIC's portal and upload your financial documentation for your I-20.

MavMail/Microsoft 365 Username: <yourStarID>@go.minnstate.edu
