Graduate and Undergraduate Students Important Information

1. If you are approved for a Reduced Course Load for Final Term then need additional time to complete a requirement (failing a class or extending a project), you will be required to enroll full time the following term.
2. If an F-1 student needs only one course to complete the program of study and the student intends to remain in the US, that course must be in-person or hybrid format. This will allow the student to maintain their visa status and be eligible to apply for work authorizations such as Optional Practical Training opportunities if they choose to do so. If an F-1 student chooses to take online courses during their final semester, that student must do so from outside the US. In this case, a student will no longer be eligible for work authorizations such as Optional Practical Training.
