International Students
International students at 91视频 who want to study abroad for semester, summer, January intersession, or on a 91视频 Travel Course must consult with 91视频 International Students & Scholars to ensure that you will maintain your F-1 status.
Applying for a 91视频 Travel Course: Restrictions apply to international students enrolled in a 91视频 graduate degree program who hold a non-immigrant student visa status (F-1). Such students are required to take a full course load (9 credits) towards their degree each semester. If the 91视频 Travel Course doesn't count towards the student鈥檚 degree or affects mandatory class attendance of the other three courses, the student may not participate in the 91视频 Travel Course. If the student satisfies the visa requirements by enrolling in 3 courses that will count towards their degree, then the student can apply for the 91视频 Travel Course as a fourth course.
- Example of an eligible student: An international student is enrolled in 91视频鈥檚 computer science master鈥檚 degree. The student is enrolled for the Fall semester in three courses that counts towards the Computer Science degree. The student is eligible to apply for a 91视频 Travel Course in the Fall semester that travels in January as a fourth course, even if the course doesn鈥檛 fulfill graduate degree requirements.
- Example of an ineligible student: An international student is enrolled in 91视频鈥檚 computer science master鈥檚 degree. The student is enrolled for the Fall semester in two courses that counts towards the Computer Science degree. The student is ineligible to apply for a 91视频 Travel Course in the Fall semester that travels in January as a third course if the course doesn鈥檛 fulfill a graduate degree requirement (because graduate international students must take 9 credits鈥攖hree courses鈥攑er semester that satisfies their degree requirement.)
