After a Campus Change is Approved

Here is a checklist to help keep you on track after your campus change has been approved:

  1. Review the Suggested Academic Plan in the Undergraduate Bulletin for your major at your new campus to schedule appropriate courses for the upcoming semester. You should schedule courses during your enrollment appointment. Be sure to review your Academic Requirements report and use the course schedule for your new campus.
  2. Secure housing for your new campus
    • If living on-campus, visit eLiving for all of your needs.
    • If living off-campus, be sure to read the terms of your lease, including move-in date, closely.

    Follow these steps to ensure you remain in compliance with the reporting requirements for your immigration status (for F-1 and J-1 students only):
