How do I provide financial certification for the Harvard sponsored visa?
To certify grants from outside Harvard, the Special Students and Visiting Fellows Office must receive an official letter, in English, from the funding institution, giving the exact amount of the award in U.S. dollars, the date of the award, and any restrictions on the use of the money. To certify personal funds, you must submit a letter from your bank certifying the amount of funds in your account. The amount of funds must be sufficient to cover tuition, fees and living expenses for the semester or academic year. The bank letter must be an original letter translated to English and the currency must be converted to US dollars. Additional information regarding financial certification will be provided to International Visiting Fellows upon acceptance.
