Program Extension Form

International Students OfficeProgram Extension Form

This form must be filled out at least three months before your I-20 Program End Date. Your program End date can be found on your I-20 under "PROGRAM OF STUDY".

An extension of program on the I-20/DS-2019 does NOT extend the visa stamp in the passport. A visa cannot be renewed in the U.S. If your visa has expired, you are allowed to remain in the U.S. and continue your studies, but you must apply for a new visa at a U.S. embassy in your country of citizenship if you are planning to re-enter the U.S. as an F-1 or J-1 the next time you travel.
