Requesting an I-20 or DS-2019

This unit has been made temporarily unavailable. The ISO has launched the New Student Intake Forms electronically, so the previous video file was not an accurate representation of the new online tool. Additional content is under development to assist students with this process.


SEVIS Immigration Transfers

Please note, the New Student Information Forms referenced in this unit have been launched electronically. You are advised to also review the information we have online about the new format so you are sure to take accurate next steps as an Immigration Transfer: http://iso.rochester.edu/study/incoming/intake/index.html.


Change of Immigration Status

Changing status within the United States can be complicated and is not recommended without careful guidance from the International Services Office.  Please contact ISO to schedule an appointment to discuss your options with an immigration advisor by emailing questions@iso.rochester.edu.


Third-Party Sponsored Students

Please note, the New Student Information Forms referenced in this unit have been launched electronically. You are advised to also review the information we have online about the new format so you are sure to take accurate next steps as a Third-Party Sponsored student: http://iso.rochester.edu/study/incoming/intake/index.html. Additionally, immigration check-in may now be completed virtually through ISO's online Immigration Check-In tool.
