* SEVIS is the U.S. Government’s Student & Exchange Visitor Information System (SEVIS). The SEVIS Fee is
required of all J-1 Trainees and a receipt is required at the visa interview. The fee is $100, it is set by the
government, and it is forwarded directly to SEVIS.
 
**The Certificate is awarded when the full training program is successfully completed, all evaluations have
been completed, and the original DS-2019 form is returned to YMCA along with proof of departure from the
U.S. (such as a copy of the passport with the departure stamp).

Refund Policy:

Cancellation: In the event of a program cancellation, YMCA will refund 100% of the accident/illness insurance and 50%
of the program fee, if written notice is submitted to YMCA within 15 days of the DS-2019 start date and prior to the
trainee’s arrival in the U.S.

Program Termination: If a host site or trainee ends the training program early (before the End Date of the DS-2019),
the YMCA must be notified in writing within 5 days. YMCA will then provide a prorated insurance refund, calculated
using the number of weeks of insurance remaining after the written notice was received.

In addition to the program fees, all participants must buy government mandated sickness and accident insurance.
The cost of the insurance is $58.50/month and must be paid with the program fee. Please include the insurance
fee with the program fee on the same check.
