Student and Exchange Visitor Information System (SEVIS) Report What is SEVIS? The Student and Exchange Visitor Information System (SEVIS) is a U.S. government internetbased 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-219 (J visas) are also issued through SEVIS. The International Student and Scholar Services Office (ISSSO) was responsible for maintaining records in SEVIS for students, scholars, faculty, and dependents for the Fall 213 semester that totals 5,137.

Non-Immigrant Enrollment Country of Origin Profiles Top 25 Ranked Countries of Origin at University of Houston Profiles Summary Pages (23-31) contain graphics which depict non-immigrant enrollment counts by country of origin for the Fall 213 semester at the University of Houston. Each area chart identifies the total number of non-immigrants enrolled by field of study. Field of study designations were determined based on the Classification of Instructional Program (CIP) Code associated with the student's primary major for the Fall 213 semester which may be under different UH colleges. The chart further identifies the percentage of non-immigrant enrollment per field of study by degree level. The three degree levels identified in the following charts are: undergraduate, graduate, and special programs. Undergraduate counts include nonimmigrants classified as pursuing post-baccalaureate programs at University of Houston. Special program counts are included in the graduate field, i.e. Optometry and Pharmacy. Each country profile contains the total number of non-immigrants enrolled at UH from that country for the Fall 213 semester. The charts also contain the total number of nonimmigrants enrolled as well as the country's ranking at UH and nationally. The country of origin rank is notated next to the country's name in each chart as indicated in the example below: Country Name (UH Non-Immigrant Enrollment Ranking/U.S. National Ranking) Countries not nationally ranked in the top 25 countries of origin are indicated in the charts with a dash (-) rather than ranking. National rankings are obtained from the Open Doors 212 Report published by Institute of International Education (IIE) for the 212-213 school year.

F-1 Employment Statistics: Optional Practical Training (OPT) Immediately following completion of their degree, most non-immigrant students on the F-1 visa have the option of pursuing a 12-month employment benefit. The student must apply with the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) to request permission to work. Upon approval, the student is authorized to accept employment inside the United States that is directly related to her/his major area of study for a specified time period. This time period is referred to as Optional Practical Training (OPT). Students graduating from certain science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) disciplines designated by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security may be eligible for an additional 17-month extension, once-in-a-lifetime, after completing OPT. 871 F-1 alumni from 8 different nations were participating in Optional Practical Training during Fall 213.

Language and Culture Center Enrollment: Fall 213 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 1975. 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 213, international students from 38 nations participated in LCC programs.
