Navigating the SEVIS Program and Attaining A Student Visa
The Beekman School is a SEVIS-approved (Student & Exchange Visitor Information System) college preparatory private high school dedicated to personalized education. Students applying to The Beekman School must submit an application and schedule an interview with the Head of School. International students unable to attend an in-person interview should arrange for a representative to visit the school or plan for an online interview.
