J-1 Visa Program

A Consortium for International Exchange

Sagamore Institute was selected by the US State Department in May 2017 as a J-1 Exchange Teacher sponsor. This means our staff serves as “Responsible Officers” in the issuing of visas and monitoring of highly-qualified international teachers who come to the USA to teach and share their culture and world perspectives. It is a high honor to serve the students of America in this way. We can currently sponsor teachers in Indiana, Florida, Michigan, Ohio, Kentucky, Arizona, Colorado, New Mexico, and Nevada.
