F-1 STUDENT PROGRAM EXTENSION DUE TO CHANGE OF MAJOR

If your change of major means that you will not be able to graduate by the program end date indicated on your I-20, you will need to

request a program extension. An extension requires that your academic advisor completes the information below and that you

provide sufficient proof of financial documentation for one academic year (12 months) or the length of the extension, whichever is

less.

Please allow seven (7) business days to process your request once all required documentation has been received. Please attach the

financial documentation to this form if your change of major will result in a program extension.
