GUIDELINES FOR CHOOSING YOUR RELEASE DATE:

If you are currently enrolled or accepted at ÐßÐßÊÓƵ University (LU) and you plan to enroll at the new University/College in the next available semester, you should consider the following:

• The release date should be no later than the first class day at the new school.
• You can only work at the school that controls your SEVIS Record.  You cannot work at ÐßÐßÊÓƵ University once classes begin at the new school or your release date arrives, whichever comes first.
• Once the semester ends at LU and you leave the US, you must reenter the US on the new school’s I-20 and stop working at LU.
