Setting up a Bank Account

International students/scholars will need the following documents to open a U.S. bank account: 

  1. Valid passport
  2. F/J Visa
  3. Valid CPP I-20/DS-2019
  4. I-94 
Students do NOT need a social security number to open a bank account in the U.S.

Below are some banking options on or near campus. It is important that students/ scholars research each banking institution to see which one best fits their financial needs. The ISSO does not endorse any of these companies.
