What kind of information is stored in SEVIS?
SEVIS expands the scope of data GW must collect on F and J visa holders and requires GW to track and report to the DHS electronically. Some of the student information GW enters into SEVIS includes name, date of birth, country of birth, country of citizenship, arrival or failure to arrive, when a student or exchange visitor transfers schools, travels overseas, changes major fields, extends the expected completion date, undertakes optional practical training or participates in a co-operative education employment program.
