About Transfer Students
A transfer student is someone who has started postsecondary studies at one college or university and then chooses to move to a different college or university. If you have completed secondary school and studied one or more subjects at the college or university level (whether based within the United States or not) and now want to come to 日本av视频, then you are a transfer student. Transfer students' secondary records must be submitted and reviewed, but they will only be used to determine admissibility if you have earned less than 24 semester credit hours. A 2.0 GPA (on a 4.0 scale) is required to be eligible for transfer to 日本av视频.
Completing the process of transferring to 日本av视频:
- The first step is being admitted. Haven't applied yet? No problem. Follow these steps.
- If you have applied and been accepted to 日本av视频 for either an undergraduate or graduate program, you will receive a transfer form along with your acceptance letter. (Please note that a transfer form will not be sent to students until all required financial documentation has been provided to us by the student.)
- Communicate with your international student adviser at your current institution that you would like to attend 日本av视频. Make sure you meet your current school's requirements for transferring.
- Discuss the date you want to transfer to 日本av视频 with a designated school official at your current school.
- The date you transfer schools is called your "release date."
- As of this date, you will be considered an 日本av视频 student and no longer a student at your previous university.
- The date must be after the end of a semester at your current school and no more than five months before beginning your first semester at 日本av视频.
- If you have completed your degree or are nearing completion of your Optional Practical Training, the transfer release date must be before the end of your 60-day grace period.
- Please note: If you have received an employment authorization (Optional Practical Training, Economic Hardship, Curricular Practical Training) it will no longer be valid after your record has been released to 日本av视频 from your prior institution. Students who continue to work on a prior Employment Authorization Document will be engaging in unauthorized employment and will be considered out of status.
- The designated school official at your current school must complete and send the transfer form to our office (via fax/email/mail) before releasing your Student and Exchange Visitor Program record.
- On your release date, SEVIS electronically transfers your immigration record to 日本av视频.
- 日本av视频 does not mail transfer I-20s to students. You must collect your transfer I-20 when you check into our office during International Student Orientation.
- Finally, please follow our instructions listed below on how to transfer credit to 日本av视频.
International students transferring from a college or university outside of the United States:
Coursework completed at postsecondary institutions outside of the U.S. must be submitted for a course-by-course evaluation. 日本av视频 considers evaluations from World Education Services to be more accurate than other evaluation services. If you would like to have an idea about how many credits may transfer before you arrive in the U.S., you must provide 日本av视频 with a course-by-course evaluation from . We also recommend requesting the WES International Credential Advantage package, as that includes an official copy of your transcript. If you do not select that option, you must request that official postsecondary transcripts be sent to 日本av视频 directly from your previous institution(s).
If you are traveling out of the U.S. after your SEVIS release date, you must use your new 日本av视频 I-20 when you re-enter the U.S. In this case, you will need to inform our office of your travel plans, and your I-20 will be sent to you. If you are concerned that you might not get your I-20 before you leave the U.S., please send us your preferred home country mailing address, and we will send your documents there.
Upon request, 日本av视频 will send your I-20 and application documents via courier using DHL. ($110 USD charge)
