Receiving the I-20

Once you have been admitted to Irvine Valley College, your I-20 and acceptance packet will be sent to you by email.  Department of Homeland Security (DHS) regulations require that the I-20 only be sent to the student’s email.  This will most commonly by your “@ivc.edu” email. 

You can forward your “@ivc.edu” email to your personal email address by following these steps:

1. Login to MySite
2. Click the profile icon on the top right.
3. Click “edit” next to “Contact information”
4. Scroll down to the “Personal” section
5. Enter or update the email address in the “Forward Emails To” field
6. Click “Update” at the bottom of the page
7. Go to your forwarding email address to open the message and click the link to confirm your email.

Transfer students or students in the US can also pick up their I-20 at the International Student Office in CEC 7.  Please contact your advisor for this option.

NOTE: The above options are available to students arriving in the U.S. who will  be attending Irvine Valley College on an F-1 visa.​
