F-1 students must keep their I-20 current and up-to-date at all times during their stay at TMU. Changes to your program (major/academic program or source of funding) or changes to your biological information (name or citizenship) must be reported to the ISO and you must submit an I-20 Request to obtain an updated I-20.

  • Change of MajorIf you have officially changed your major, then you must request for an updated I-20. Please complete and submit the I-20 Request form to the ISO. Your updated I-20 stating your new major will be ready for pick up 5 business days after the date of submission.
  • Change of FundingIf the source(s) of your financial support has changed (i.e. change in departmental funding, change in scholarship/grants, change in personal or family funds), then you must request for an updated I-20. Please obtain new proof of funding, complete the I-20 Request form, and submit both documents to the ISO. Your updated I-20 stating your new source of funding will be ready for pick up 5 business days after the date of submission.

Your updated I-20 with your name correction will be ready for pick up 5 business days after the date of submission.**Note: If you have changed your name (due to marriage or other reasons) and the name change reflects on your passport, then you must also complete the steps above to obtain an updated I-20.

New I-20

  • Change in education levelF-1 students who have a change in education level (pursuing a new degree objective) must request a Change of Education Level (COEL) I-20 to reflect their new degree objective from the ISO.

Once issued a TMU F-2 I-20 has been issued, the student’s dependent can schedule an interview appointment at a U.S. Embassy/Consulate to obtain an F-2 visa to enter the U.S. Please follow the steps below to obtain an F-2 I-20 from TMU:

  • Readmitted to TMUUndergraduate F-1 students who took a leave of absence for two quarters or more must apply for readmissions to TMU through the Registrar’s Office and be readmitted to TMU in order for an I-20 to be issued from the ISO. Students who have been academically dismissed from TMU must also apply for readmissions. Please see TMU Registrar’s Readmission procedures.
