Methods of Mailing
If you reside in the State of California, we will mail your acceptance packet, including the Form I-20, to you via regular United States Postal Service (USPS) mail. If you reside outside the State of California or the U.S., you must use a courier service to ensure delivery and tracking of the acceptance packet. The cost for the courier service will be borne by you. For your convenience, Cal State L.A. has signed up with University Express Mail Services (UEMS) (https://study.eshipglobal.com/) to provide courier services for our international community. Once we notify you that the Form I-20 is ready, you can create an account with UEMS and send an electronic pre-paid pre-addressed airway bill to the International Office for mailing the acceptance packet to you.

Transfer to CSULA
If you currently have F-1 or J-1 visa status, contact your International Student Advisor for transfer out procedures. CSULA is unable to issue an I-20 to you without access to your SEVIS record. Once you received admission to CSULA, complete and submit the Transfer to CSULA form to the International Office to facilitate the transfer in process (www.calstatela.edu/international).
