A Note from the Editors:
The INS has updated its information on the Student and Exchange Visitor Program (SEVP). SEVP is the reengineered nonimmigrant student and exchange visitor (F, M, & J visa categories) process, converting what is currently a manual procedure into an automated process. The INS hopes the change will improve data collection and reporting, enhance customer service, facilitate compliance with regulations, and help it to better monitor school and exchange programs. Utilizing the lessons learned from the Coordinated Interagency Partnership Regulating International Students (CIPRIS), the INS is currently in the process of nationally implementing SEVP.
