Procedures for Students Already Inside the U.S.
For students seeking to transfer to SCSU and are already attending a U.S. school, a Transfer Notification Form is needed. The student fills out Part 1 and gives it to an international student advisor at the current school along with a copy of the SCSU acceptance notification; the transferring school fills out Part 2.
The SEVIS record should be released, and the Transfer Notification form faxed to St. Cloud State, no later than two weeks before the first day of classes at St. Cloud State. Your transfer I-20 will be issued after you arrive at St. Cloud State University unless you are leaving the country and need to have it sent to you prior to re-entry.
If you will remain in the United States until you begin studying at St. Cloud State University, you will receive your transfer I-20 during the first week or two. If you leave the U.S., you may need to renew your visa. In this case, see the list of items you need to take with you for your visa appointment.
- Contact our office to let us know you will be traveling outside the United States and that you need an I-20 from us.
