As a SEVIS-certified school, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security authorizes Solebury to issue an I-20 form to newly enrolled international students once we have their signed contract and tuition payment in order to allow them to apply for the student (F-1) visa. The F-1 visa is a requirement for students who hold a foreign passport to enroll in a school in the U.S.
More information about the protocols and procedures to follow for international students planning to study in the US is available at the Department of Homeland Security website.

Jordan Reed
Solebury School's Director of Strategic Admissions Initiatives/Assistant Director of Financial Aid.
“I was born and raised in south-central Pennsylvania on a farm that produced everything from American Bison to Poinsettias during my formative years. My whole world existed in one small town in the middle of Pennsylvania and I was largely unaware of other cultures and places. When I reached high school, I was lucky enough to attend a boarding school that offered me the chance to take my first international trip. In 2004 I spent the summer living and studying the German language in Switzerland, Germany, and Austria. That was a seminal moment for me, and in many ways I have never looked back. I have since taken every opportunity I could to travel to new places, including 6 months of field research spent living off the grid in the Australian rainforest, and trips to over a dozen other countries. I see great value in global citizenship, new experiences, and pushing ourselves out of our comfort zones. I think Solebury is a great place for students to live and learn to be well-rounded global citizens. We have a thriving, diverse community at Solebury and I look forward to meeting students who are excited to join our school!”

Rashad Shabazz
Solebury School's Director of International Recruitment, is truly a global citizen.
“I’m elated to have joined my alma mater Solebury School as the Director of International Recruitment.
Prior to coming back, I spent four and a half years working and living in Beijing, China as an English teacher instructing and mentoring Chinese high school students at an international boarding school. During the aforementioned stint, I was fortunate to have the opportunity to travel to numerous countries around the world and build lifetime bonds of mutual trust and respect with people from all walks of life. I welcome and savor the opportunity to build bridges between people from different countries, cultures, and backgrounds. As a former boarding student and now a dorm head at one of our student residences, I have a profound appreciation for and understanding of everything the "life on campus experience" has to offer here at Solebury.
I look forward to sharing my firsthand knowledge and information about the unique and close-knit Solebury School community with prospective families across the globe!”
