This site is designed to make it easy for you to access the forms necessary to keep AMIDEAST informed of your progress and to insure that your scholarship benefits remain intact.

Forms for Visas: CASP now prepares form DS-2019, a document generated by the SEVIS Student Tracking System, which was mandated by the U.S. Patriot Act of 2001. When the DS 2019 is issued, you will be officially enrolled in SEVIS. This form entitles you to apply for a J-1 visa. After entering the US and arriving at your university, you must call your AMIDEAST adviser so that we can validate your arrival. If your arrival is not validated, SEVIS will automatically change your status to "no-show." We now issue DS 2019s valid for the duration of your program, thus eliminating the need for annual renewal.

If you travel (e.g. returning home over the winter break) you must send the DS 2019 to AMIDEAST for us to sign under "travel validation." This signature is valid for one year.

Term Course Schedule Form: This form is your CASP preregistration. Just as you preregister for classes each semester for the following semester, you need to complete this form so that your CASP adviser can monitor your academic program. You will receive an e-mail message and a link to this page each semester indicating the date by which your term course schedule is due at AMIDEAST.

Program of Study Form: This planning document serves as an outline of your entire course of study. Please complete it in consultation with your university academic advisor by November 15th of your first term as a CASP scholar. It allows your CASP advisor to monitor your academic progress throughout your time in the U.S. It is also meant to help you get a good picture of what your program will look like. CASP scholars who transfer universities or change majors must complete a new program of study form.

Summer Plans Form: This form is due by April 30th. It is important because it tells us where you will be over the summer. Please be specific about dates if you plan to spend part of the summer in the U.S. and part of the summer in Cyprus.

Summer Stipend Form: Due at AMIDEAST no later than April 30th, the summer stipend form lets us know whether you would like to withhold funds from your upcoming academic year to pay for a summer term after that year. When you fill out the Summer Stipend Withholding Form we will be able to save some money from your 2007 2008 scholarship for Summer 2008 tuition. If you do not return this form, we will assume that you would like to use all of your funding during the school year for which it is intended.

On Campus Work Request Form: This form must be submitted to request permission to work on campus. Working without permission is a violation of your visa.  It is required for all on-campus work, even if your campus job was included in your financial aid package. It must be renewed every year, or every time you plan to start a new job.
