| Durham Technical Community College currently does not accept students
or issue I-20’s to students who are abroad. This is explained in
the Durham Tech admissions policy letter. For
those who are already in the United States, please see the next section.
|
For those who are in the U.S. with another valid visa, it may be possible to change visa status to F-1 student visa. The checklist for change of status lists everything that must be completed before we can issue the I-20. The I-20 is then used to apply for the F-1 student visa (either by returning to the home country or by submitting an application for change of status to USCIS in the Department of Homeland Security). After reviewing the checklist, if you need more information about admissions
and possibly changing your current visa to F-1 student visa status,
please contact Margaret Newhouse at newhousem@durhamtech.edu or (919)
686-3305. General admissions information is also available under the
general admissions
area of our web site. |
To be eligible to transfer to our college, your current school must
verify that you hold the F-1 visa in good standing. If this is not the
case, you will probably have to apply for reinstatement or leave the
U.S. to reapply for an F-1 visa. Please view the checklist
for transfer and the transfer
clearance form that your current school must complete. |
