Most international students set up a checking account upon arrival in the U.S.
Things to consider when selecting a bank:
- Banking Fees
- Overdraft Protection
- Minimum Balance Requirements
- ATM and Branch Locations
There are many local and national banks in and around Denton to choose from.
There is also a DATCU Credit branch on campus in Union Suite 222.
If your classes are on the main campus, this is the closest option for you to set
up a bank account.
To set up a bank account with DATCU, you will need the following:
- An unexpired foreign passport
- Your I-20
- Minimum of $5 to deposit
