International Student Academic Advising
Enrollment Requirements
All international students at 老司机福利网 are required to enroll in a full
course load during the academic year, with only a few exceptions. The full course
load requirement does not apply in the summer session.
Dropping below a full course load can only be authorized by the Office of International
Services. International students at risk for dismissal must be referred to the office
for immigration advising.

Changes to Major and Curriculum
The I-20 document is specific to an F1 student's major and degree program. If you
change your major or degree program, you must notify the Office of International Services.
To issue the new I-20, we will ask that your academic advisor confirm the new program
by email or letter. If the change will delay graduation, the advisor's note or email
should indicate the new date of graduation as well.
International Advising Support
Each international student is assigned an international adviser to collaborate with all other advisers in support of each student's personal wellness, immigration compliance and academic success. They are available to answer any of your questions. If you aren't sure who your advisor is, contact us.
University Withdrawal
If you withdraw from the University as an international student, you have 15 days to leave the United States. Academic advisers and faculty are asked to contact our office if an international student has indicated that he or she is leaving, or has been excessively absent from classes.
