Programs of Study for International Students
Central New Mexico College provides education toward the completion of a two-year associate degree. Upon graduation, you have the option to continue your education to complete a four-year bachelor’s degree at a four-year college or university.
International Students are individuals studying in degree or exchange programs with legal F1-Visa or M1-Visa student immigration status. If you have a current visa but would like an F1-Visa or M1-Visa, you can learn how to change your status.
I can’t recommend CNM enough to other international students. It’s been easy to succeed.
F1-Visa Programs
The F-1 Visa allows you to enter the United States as a full-time student at an accredited academic institution, such as Central New Mexico Community College (CNM). With an F1-Visa, you can enroll in a program or course of study that culminates in a degree, diploma, or certificate.
