Transfer Process
Before
transferring out to a new educational program, please follow the steps
listed below:
- Be sure to confirm that the new school has accepted you into their English or academic program.
- Download and print an
exit form, or come to the International Student Programs office to
pick one up. After the form is filled out, return it to the front desk person for processing. This exit form lets us know your intention to either transfer to another college/university or to return home.
- The ISP will release your record in SEVIS (U.S. Homeland Security database) to your new college/university after the grades are posted for your current quarter of study, or once graduation has occurred. Due to the requirements of SEVIS and in order to make certain that the student is maintaining his/her F-1 immigration status, we are not able to release a student early.
- Your new school will issue you a new I-20 and acceptance packet. Be sure that the new school has a current address
to which to send your new I-20 in the U.S. or in your home country.
- Once your information is released in SEVIS, the new school has control over your I-20 and immigration record.
