Statement of Understanding

By signing this form, I understand that:

1. On the release date, the responsibility for my SEVIS record transfers to my new school, The Rhode Island School of Design cannot access my record in any way.
2. Should my plans change, I will contact The Rhode Island School of Design prior to the release date, or my new school if after the release date.
3. I must pay any remaining tuition balance to The Rhode Island School of Design before I will be able to receive an official transcript.
4. I must obtain a new Form I-20 from my new school as soon as possible after the release date. My old I-20’s must be retained as records. Should I wish to travel, I must use my new school’s I-20 to reenter the U.S.
5. I am required to enroll full time at my new school by the program start date on my new Form I-20.
6. I am required to report to the Designated School Official at my new school no later than 15 days after my program start date.
7. If I am engaging in Optional Practical Training (including STEM OPT) after completion of studies, I know that my work authorization automatically ends on the date my SEVIS record is released to my new school regardless of the dates indicated on my EAD (Employment Authorization Document). Should I continue to be employed on OPT/STEM OPT after the release date it would be a violation of my F-1 status.
8. If I am engaging in Optional Practical Training (including STEM OPT) after completion of studies, I understand that I will no longer be eligible to apply for OPT/STEM OPT at the same academic level and I will not be able to apply for any remainder of time I have left for OPT/STEM OPT. *
