A student who has failed to maintain status may be reinstated to lawful F-1 status at the discretion of the USCIS under limited conditions.
Make an appointment with the International Admissions Specialist. Bring with you all the documents that are listed below.
Once you receive a response from USCIS, you must bring those documents to IAS to update the system. Please note there is no guarantee of approval of change of status. Denial means you must leave the US.
