Browsing: Duration of Status

More uncertainty looms over international students after a federal judge in Massachusetts ordered the postponement of the “Duration of Status” (D/S) rule change Sept. 14, leaving the policy without a new start date. The Baylor ISSS Office issued a statement on the matter via email to all international students Sept. 15, the day the rule change was originally set to take effect.

With the U.S. government’s latest termination of “Duration of Status” (D/S) from Sept. 15 onward, Baylor’s International Student and Scholar Services Office recommends reading new regulations for major changes or school transfers carefully to ensure F-1/J-1 status for international students.
