A Guide for International Graduate Students 2010-2011

General Visa/Immigration Concerns

Registration

All F-1 and J-1 students are required to register with the University each Fall semester. All graduate students can register on-line, beginning Thursday, September 2. Students on a Leave of Absence who remain in the U.S. are considered to be out of status by DHS. Reinstatement to valid F-1/J-1 status may be difficult and time consuming.

If you have any questions or concerns about your status, contact the OVS at (609) 258-1451.

Address change

All F-1/J-1 students are required to report any change of local U.S. address within 10 days of moving to another address. Students must update their address in the SCORE system online (through the Registrar’s Office). The Registrar’s office will notify the OVS of your new address. OVS will then report the change to SEVIS on your behalf.

AllF-1/J-1 students are also required to report any change of their permanent address in their home country in the SCORE system online.
