Transfer Out of UF

The process for transferring out of UF is:  

• Obtain admission to another US institution.  
• Work with the international students and scholars office at your new institution. They will have their own transfer-in procedures that you must complete.  
• The majority of the transfer process will be facilitated by your new institution.  
• Email your EVS advisor the UF transfer-out form and your new institution offer letter.  
• Upon approval, EVS will schedule the transfer of your SEVIS record.  
• The new institution will provide you with information on their check-in procedures.  

Required Documents 

New Institution Admission Letter:  

• This is required to evaluate if the SEVIS transfer request can be approved.  

UF Transfer-Out Form: 

• This form is required to confirm the logistics of the SEVIS transfer.  
• You must complete the top portion. 
• The RO/ARO at your new US institution must complete the “New Program Sponsor Information.” 

If your new institution requires additional forms be completed by EVS for the transfer process, please email these forms to your EVS advisor or provide your EVS advisor's email to your new immigration advisor.
