Students: Letter of Financial Backing
The Letter of Financial Backing is evidence that the student will have
sufficient money to cover all expenses during enrollment at the
University of Houston-Victoria. This letter may be signed by a parent,
relative or sponsor and must include recent bank documents verifying
availability of funds. The bank documents must state funds available
in U.S. dollars with the name of a contact person clearly stated.
This form is required for students attending on an F-1 visa.
It is not required of permanent residents or immigrants.
Transfer Of Funds
Before the student leaves the home country, it is very important to
inquire about the regulations regarding the transfer of funds. In
addition to the expenditures for travel, the student should have at
least $4,000 US upon arrival to meet initial expenses. American
Express Traveler’s Checks are recommended in place of currency.
Exchange rates may be obtained by contacting any banking institution.
