The Change of Personal Data Form is used by students in F-1 status, including those on medical leave, to report changes of personal data. Changes must be reported to two offices on campus, the International Office and the Registrar’s Office.
Reporting to the International Office to meet Department of Homeland Security (DHS) SEVIS requirements – All students must report changes of location address and home country address to the International Office within ten days of the change. You must report an accurate local U.S. address where you are actually live (not a post office box number). Upon receipt of the update, we update our own office records, and we report those changes in SEVIS, thus relieving you of any obligation to report directly to DHS.
You can report the change of local address and phone number through CatsWeb. Home country address changes as well as changes on alternate e-mail address and phone numbers MUST be reported by submitting the Change of Personal Data Form using one of the following methods:

On our form, we also request that you provide various phone numbers and alternate email address such as Hotmail, Yahoo, Gmail, etc. This additional information is NOT reported in SEVIS. It is used only by our office in case we need to contact you.
Reporting to the Registrar’s Office (CatsWeb) – For proper routing of your university mail such as grades and bills, all students must report address changes to the Registrar’s Office through CatsWeb. CatsWeb uses the terms “temporary address” and “permanent address.” We recommend you use your United States address in BOTH the temporary and permanent address fields in CatsWeb because your university mail is sent to your CatsWeb permanent address.
