If you are a designated school official (DSO) at a Student and Exchange Visitor Program (SEVP)‑certified school, or work at a U.S. school that is interested in enrolling F and M students, make sure to frequent the Study in the States’ Schools page.

This page makes it easy for school officials to find needed information related to SEVP‑certification. From this page, you can find the answers you need to know in order to remain compliant, including information about how to:

• Get started with SEVP-certification.
• File for recertification.
• Manage school records.
• Submit a motion or appeal.

Also available are a host of other tools for DSOs including an interactive SEVP School Certification Life Cycle. This interactive guide breaks down each step of the certification process. The Glossary of Terms allows you to quickly search and find the definitions for key terms related to the F and M student process.

Finally, remember to bookmark the SEVIS Help Hub, a central location for information related to your Student and Exchange Visitor Information System (SEVIS) reporting requirements. Specifically designed for DSOs, the SEVIS Help Hub features SEVIS-related materials including user guides, fact sheets, job aids and answers to some of the most frequently asked DSO questions. Study in the States continually adds resources to the SEVIS Help Hub so it’s important that you check back regularly for updated content.
