Transferring an I-20

If You’re Transferring from Another U.S. School:

  1. Download a copy of your admit letter from the Next Steps Intent to Enroll portal.
  2. Take this letter to your current school and ask them to transfer your SEVIS record to 菠菜网lol正规平台 using the SEVIS School Code: SFR214F00627000.
  3. Make this request at least ten business days before classes start at 菠菜网lol正规平台.
  4. Update your mailing address in My菠菜网lol正规平台 to your current U.S. address.
  5. After confirming that your SEVIS record has been successfully transferred to 菠菜网lol正规平台, please email us at international-admission@bianlifan.com with both your name and your 9-digit 菠菜网lol正规平台 ID# in the email.

Our office will process your Transfer In I-20 in approximately 4-5 business days.

San Jose State University operates with various school codes. To prevent any delays in the issuance of your transfer I-20, please ensure that your previous institution uses the accurate SEVIS SCHOOL CODE: SFR214F00627000.

Important Note:

If you’ve never attended a U.S. school but plan to arrive on another school’s I-20, you’ll need to follow similar steps. Arrive in the U.S. with that I-20 and let that school know you want to transfer your SEVIS record to 菠菜网lol正规平台. Your initial I-20 from 菠菜网lol正规平台 will be canceled since you already have an F-1 visa, but you’ll receive your transfer I-20 after completing the steps above.
