Visiting Interns and Scholars
The Exchange Visitor Program (EVP), administered by the U.S. Department of State, is used to bring interns and scholars to the United States.
The EVP furthers the International Student and Scholar Services (ISSS) mission by facilitating cultural exchanges, fostering international understanding, and meaningful interactions between international students, interns, and scholars, and the university community.
Departments wishing to sponsor an intern, or scholar for the EVP must complete the appropriate form and return it to International Students and Scholars Services along with the appropriate documentation that is listed on the form.
If you are unsure about whether the proposed program or employment fits within the EVP J visa program please contact Mihaela Metianu (mmetianu@fau.edu).
