Because you are currently attending a U.S. educational institution, or are completing Optional Practical Training (OPT), you must have your active SEVIS record transferred to Haverford. Contact an international student advisor at your current institution to notify them that you intend to request the transfer of your SEVIS record to Haverford College. Please provide your current international student advisor with Haverford’s SEVIS Code:

• Haverford College: PHI214F00246000

Receiving Your Haverford I-20:

Your Haverford I-20 will be issued within five to ten business days after your SEVIS record is transferred to Haverford College.  Your I-20 will be emailed to the email address you used in the New Student I-20 Request Form.

F-1 Visa and Transfer I-20:

• If your visa has expired, you may remain in the United States as long as you have received your transfer-pending I-20 from Haverford and have no plans to travel outside the United States. However, you will need to renew your F-1 visa the next time you leave the United States.
• If you are outside the United States, you will be able to use your current, unexpired F-1 visa to re-enter the United States, even if it has your previous school’s name printed on it.
• If you are outside the United States and your visa has expired or will expire before returning, you must use your Haverford-issued I-20 to renew your F-1 visa.
