Social Security Numbers
In order to apply for a social security number, you must go to the Career Development Office in Tobin Hall. Here, you will receive a letter from the appropriate University administrator, and an application to complete. Then, as a group with the International Student Advisor, or on your own, you bring the following:
- The original letter from the designated school official (The DSO or the Career Development Office) which specifies that you are authorized to work and are currently enrolled in a full course of study
- Passport
- An I-20 (Student) Copy from Salve Regina University
- A current I-94
to the Social Security Office in Downtown Newport. With new INS regulations in effect, your new Social Security card will be mailed to you within 3-12 weeks.
All International Students are eligible to participate in a work-study program on campus, so take advantage to gain some extra money, get experience in an area of interest, and meet more people on campus.
