Arrival and housing arrangements

The academic department or college inviting an exchange visitor is responsible for making arrangements for the scholar's arrival to campus and any necessary housing reservations.

If the scholar requires on-campus housing, please contact the University Apartments Office in the Office of Residence Life at 989-774-3284 or apts@cmich.edu.

Minimum funding requirements: 

  • $20,000 per year for the J-1 scholar.
  • $5,000 per year for each J-2 dependent (spouse or child).
  • For programs less than one year, these amounts are prorated monthly.
