Immigration Matters | Global Education

As an F-1 visa holder studying at HPU, it is your responsibility to understand and comply with the terms of your immigration status. Immigration laws and regulations can be confusing, and this guide is not meant to be the final authority on matters relating to your immigration status, but a starting point to help you understand how to stay in lawful status and get the most of your opportunities afforded to you as a non-immigrant student.

Review this information carefully and contact your Designated School Official or the Office of Global Education if you have questions. HPU’s Designated School Officials are listed below. The Office of Global Education is located in Cottrell Hall.
