5 What is SEVIS? Student and Exchange Visitor Information System (SEVIS) Report The Student and Exchange Visitor Information System (SEVIS) is a U.S. government internet-based system that tracks current information on non-immigrant students (F and M visas), exchange visitors (J visa), and their dependents (F-2, M-2, and J-2). SEVIS allows schools and program sponsors to transmit electronic information and event notifications via the internet to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and U.S. Department of State (DOS) throughout the student s/exchange visitor s stay in the United States. SEVIS reflects changes in international student or exchange visitor status, admission at the Port of Entry (POE), changes of address, changes in program of study, employment authorizations, and other events. Immigration forms I-2 (F visas) and DS-29 (J visas) are also issued through SEVIS. The International Student and Scholar Services (ISSS) was responsible for maintaining records in SEVIS for students, scholars, faculty, and dependents for the Fall 27 semester that totals 6,3.

43 Non-Immigrant Enrollment - Institute of International Education* Top 25 Countries of Origin Report Open Doors Report Explanation The next few pages contain information specific to International Student and Scholar Services' reporting data to the Institute of International Education (IIE). It depicts non-immigrant enrollment counts by country of origin and field of study for the Fall 26 semester at the University of Houston. Field of study designations were determined based on the Classification of Instructional Program (CIP) Codes associated with the student's primary major. These codes are not specific to a certain College and should not be compared in this way. The following graphs will identify the trends at UH for the top sending countries in the world and what part Unversity of Houston plays in this role. The first page will have information regarding enrollment of the top 25 countries in the U.S. while the following two pages have information for CIP code designation. As you will note, the top 25 sending countries to the U.S. are not the same as the top countries that are enrolled at the University of Houston (UH). Iran, Nigeria, and Venezuela, for example, are top ten sending countries to UH, but not in the U.S. On the opposite end, Brazil, Japan, and Kuwait are in the top twenty-five sending countries in the U.S., but have very few numbers at UH.

52 Language and Culture Center Enrollment: Fall 27 The Language and Culture Center (LCC) is located on the University of Houston campus and provides students the ability to experience life at an American university while learning English as a Second Language (ESL) through a variety of courses designed to integrate them into the American educational system. LCC has provided intensive English Instruction for international students on the University of Houston campus since 975. LCC students may apply for admission to UH upon successful completion of the sixth and final level and passing TOEFL scores. Students enrolled in LCC programs are not enrolled in degree-seeking courses at UH and are therefore not included in the international student enrollment figures indicated earlier in this report. During Fall 27, international students from 29 nations participated in the LCC program.
