J-1 Status
Overview
Applications to change to J-1 status may be filed by individuals who are residing in the U.S. in a qualifying nonimmigrant status. All other students must apply for a visa stamp abroad.
If you would like to change to J-1 status in the U.S., please contact the ISO at least six months before the planned start date of your program to discuss the options.
