IV. PROOF OF PHYSICAL EXAMINATION
Proof of Physical form (PDF file) - At least 2 weeks before you depart, you must send ASA this completed
Proof of Physical form, completed by your doctor during a recent physical examination. You

V. DIGITAL PASSPORT PHOTO - FOR YOUR REGENT'S COLLEGE STUDENT ID
Regent's College requires ALL incoming students to submit a digital .JPEG "passport photo," to
be used on your Student ID card. Read these instructions to submit your JPEG photo (PDF file)
Deadline: Spring students - Nov. 15; Summer students - April 15; Fall students - July 15.
VI. PHOTOCOPY OF PASSPORT
If you have not yet submitted a photocopy of your passport to ASA,
please do so immediately. Passport copies must be MAILED to ASA. Faxed passports
come out too blurry to read.
If you don't yet have a passport, apply for one right away! Lately, they have been
taking about 6 weeks to
process by regular service. Don't forget you
will need your passport in hand in order to apply for your Student Visa (academic year students only),
and you have to apply
for your student visa 60 days prior to departure, so you may need to have your
passport EXPEDITED in order to get your passport in time to apply for your visa. We
recommend that you have your passport expedited if your departure date is 3 months away or less.
Your passport must not expire for at least 3 months after your proposed return date from abroad. Please check your passport's
expiration date to be sure. Academic year students should not plan any international travel during the
months prior to your study abroad program, because you will have to leave your passport
at the Consulate while they process your visa.
