    All F-1 graduate, or undergraduate students may register for only one fully online course out of their full-time enrollment, 9 credits for graduate students and 12 credits for undergraduate students, during the fall and spring semesters; hybrid courses, except for HYFlex are considered in person classes. Attending school during the summer or winter sessions is optional, not mandatory for F-1 students.

     

    Digital I-20s

    Based on recent guidance from the US government, the International Students Office staff are currently issuing digitally signed I-20s and DS-2019 forms.

    This means that if you are a student in F-1 status and you apply for anything that requires a new I-20 (for example, a travel signature, OPT, CPT, etc.), you will receive a digital I-20 at your Hunter College email account instead of receiving a new, printed I-20, once your document is ready; only students applying for social security numbers, will require an original I-20s/DS2019 forms.


    REMINDER TO F-1 STUDENTS:

    You are required to pay the out of New York State resident tuition and fees, regardless of how long you have resided in New York State.
