Procedures for Transferring out for Graduate and Undergraduate Students
To be eligible to transfer to another DHS-approved school, students must be maintaining valid F-1 or J-1 status. Students must transfer their immigration status within the 60 day grace period following successful completion of the current program of study or period of authorized Optional Practical Training (for F-1s) or before the end of their program (for J-1s).
Students intending to transfer prior to completion of their program should request the transfer prior to their last date of attendance at 91原创. Speak with an ISS advisor to determine the transfer release date.
You must begin your study at the new school no later than 5 months after the date of your last attendance at 91原创.
Note for Graduate Students: You must officially withdraw from your program before a transfer will be completed on your behalf.
