F-1 International Travel Request
To receive a travel endorsement on your I-20 please complete the following form at least 2 weeks before the requested travel date, if possible. (We understand that emergencies happen and will do our best to accommodate as we are able)

Disclaimer: International travel is not recommended while school is in session. Traveling outside of school terms, such as during annual vacation or winter break, is generally a much safer option. 

If you must travel while school is in session, it is not recommended to be out of the U.S. for longer than 2 weeks as extended travel may catch the unwanted attention of Customs & Border Protection (CBP) officials upon re-entry. Should circumstances require international travel for longer than 2 weeks, please consult with your International Student Advisor.

Short International Travel Requests
If students plan to leave outside of school breaks/holidays, their requests can only be approved under the condition that they will not fall out of attendance. For this reason, short international travel requests during the semester or while school is in session must meet this requirement, and even then will only be granted for extenuating circumstances.
Long International Travel Requests
If travel dates exceed the number of allowed absences and students are unable to maintain attendance, they may need to request for an ‘Authorized Early Withdrawal’ termination. Students will then have 15 days to leave the country and will have the option to request the DSO to reactivate the SEVIS record. It is advised that students requests for reactivation at least 60 days prior to the intended arrival date. Please note that the reactivation of I-20 is up to the discretion of SEVP.
Important Travel Documents
When traveling outside the U.S., international students must carry important travel documents including:
(1) Valid Form I-20 with travel signature,
(2) Valid passport (within 6 months),
(3) Valid visa.
International Travel Request Approval Process
In order to travel internationally, F-1 students must have their request approved by the Student Service Department and the International Affairs Department. Upon approval of the travel request dates, the student will receive an international travel approval email through their Westcliff email address and the DSO will give a travel signature on the second page of their Form I-20.
