If you will transfer from Temple University to another university in the United States, you must use the Transfer Out Request Form to notify the Office of International Services (your “current school”) of your intent to transfer so that we can update your SEVIS record with this information.
Upon receipt of this form, the OIS will indicate in SEVIS that you are in “transfer out” status so that the university to which you are transferring (your “transfer school”) will be given access to your SEVIS record.
Your transfer school will not have access to your SEVIS record until on or after the transfer date indicated in your SEVIS record and cannot generate a SEVIS Form I-20 for you until that time.
Unless you specifically request otherwise, the transfer date will be the last date of the academic term during which you submit this form to the OIS.
You should know that this office can update your SEVIS record to “transfer out” to only one university in the United States.
- If you decide not to transfer to the university you indicate on this form, you must inform OIS of that fact before the transfer date with which we will update your SEVIS record; after that date, we will no longer have access to your SEVIS record.
- If you change your plans after your Sevis record is released you will need to work with the new school to have your Sevis record re-transferred.
