Will I be in violation of my student status if my Dean or Academic Advisor gives me permission to drop below full time hours?
Your Dean or Academic Advisor may give you permission academically to drop a class, but this will not protect your student immigration status. Only the International Student Advisor has been authorized by the Bureau of Citizenship and Immigration Services (US CIS) to give you permission to drop below full-time hours.
