REDUCED COURSE LOAD (RCL) – FINAL TERM ONLY
**For Undergraduate Students Only**
U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) requires F-1 and J-1 students to register for and complete a full course of study (12
credits for undergraduates) each academic term. Undergraduate students may petition to drop below full-time if they have fewer
than 12 credits of required coursework remaining in their FINAL term. Coursework includes all major(s) and minor(s) for which the
student is currently admitted.
This completed form must be received in International Student Advising and Services (University Plaza) by the end of the
add/drop period in the final term of study. Failure to meet this deadline may cause the student to fall out of immigration status,
resulting in the need to apply for reinstatement.

PART II (to be completed ONLY by sponsored students):
Are you a sponsored student?
yes Sponsor
no
A sponsored student is any student who has a scholarship from their home university, home embassy, a company, or a U.S. government agency. Examples include a
scholarship from the Fulbright Program, the Saudi Arabia Cultural Mission (SACM), Royal Thai Embassy, and so on. If you are receiving funding from your parents or
relatives, you are not considered a sponsored student.
If you are a sponsored student, please carefully read the following and acknowledge your understanding by checking the box below.
As a sponsored student, your sponsor requires you to maintain a certain minimum number of credits (typically 15 for
undergraduates, 9 for graduates) and does not permit you to withdraw from courses after the 100% refund deadline in Week 1.
Under the terms of agreement with your sponsor, OSU is obligated to notify your sponsor regarding your registration status,
including reduced course loads, dropping courses, or withdrawing from the university. This may have adverse consequences on your
sponsorship funding including a deduction of your stipend/salary or a discontinuation of your scholarship by your sponsor. If you are
dropping any courses after Week 3 your sponsor may not cover the costs for tuition and fees for the courses which you drop or
withdraw. Should this occur, you will be required to pay any outstanding balances on your student account including tuition and
fees normally covered by your sponsor.
I have read the above and understand that my sponsor will be notified of the change in my registration/enrollment status. I also
understand that I am responsible for payment of any tuition and fees as well as outstanding balances on my account not paid by
my sponsor due to this change.
