Student and Exchange Visitor Program
Student and Exchange Visitor Program (SEVP) acts as the bridge for varied government organizations which have an interest in information on foreign students. SEVP uses web-based technology, the Student and Exchange Visitor Information System (SEVIS) to track and monitor schools and programs, students, exchange visitors and their dependents throughout the duration of approved participation within the U.S. education system.
SEVP collects, maintains and provides the information so that only legitimate foreign
students or exchange visitors gain entry to the United States. The result is
an easily accessible information system that provides timely information to the
Department of State, U.S. Customs and Border Protection, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration
Services and U. S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
SEVIS By The Numbers is a statistical breakdown of the system's performance and trends in foreign student representation in U.S. academic and exchange programs.
The Student and Exchange Visitor Program has published both a Privacy Impact Assessment and a System of Records Notice for the Student and Exchange Visitor Information System (SEVIS) and both are now available for review.
