What should I do if I want to transfer schools while on an F-1 or M-1 visa?
A: You can transfer schools, but you must inform both your current and new schools. Additionally, update your SEVIS record and obtain a new Form I-20 from the new institution. Always consult with your DSO to follow the correct procedure.
