Know how changes in the immigration environment may affect you if you’re traveling.
In response to international student questions regarding international travel, the 蜜桃传媒 encourages students to carefully plan travel with ample time to accommodate potential delays during an anticipated heavy travel season.
We recommend that F-1 and J-1 students consider the following:
- Visa Processing Times: If you require a new U.S. entry visa, be prepared for potential delays due to staffing transitions at U.S. embassies and consulates.
- Necessary Documentation: Ensure you have all required documentation for travel, including a valid visa and a signed I-20 or DS-2019.
- Travel Timing: Consider returning to Buffalo a few days before your classes start.
Please visit the ISS travel webpage for additional guidance on documentation and applying for a new visa. As always, if you have questions or concerns, please email us at ISS@buffalo.edu or join us for Advising.
