The student admission number is the 11 digit number found on your current I-94 card (arrival/departure record). The admission number is NOT your school ID number. The A-number is given to permanent residents of the U.S. International students do NOT have an A-number, but do have an I-94 admission number. You may have seen an “A-number” on a previously issued EAD card, but this number was basically issued to identify persons who have an immigration file. This is not a real A-number but a fictitious number used to generate the EAD card. It should NOT be put on any application requiring an A-number.
