Change of Address

Federal regulatiosn require that F-1 and J-1 students regularly report any changes in address or phone number so that they can be be updated in the Student and Exchange Visitor Information System (SEVIS).

To change your address, you must complete two forms:

1) The Registrar's Office - Please click here for information on changing your address and contact information in Banner.

2) The OIA's Change of Address form so the Office of International Affairs can update your information in your SEVIS record.

Only international students on an F-1 or J-1 visa should complete this form. If you are not on an F-1 or J-1 visa, please complete a Change of Student Information Form Request Form and submit the completed form to the Registrar's Office.

It is quite difficult to find the words to describe seven years of my life at UL. I was thrilled to find quite a diverse group of people when I arrived to not only the University but to Lafayette as well. This is something that, as an international student, is very valuable as the opportunity to learn from others is never-ending. Faculty, staff and classmates were fundamental for me to grow both as a student and as a person. During both my Bachelor and Master degrees, UL gave me the tools to be academically successful; I learned from remarkable mentors not only in my major field of study, but across many other disciplines. I was introduced to new ways of thinking, new perspectives and opportunities that brought me where I am today. Even though school kept me busy most of the time, I enjoyed many events at UL. I hardly missed the Ragin' Cajuns football games, the tailgates, International Week, and all the social activities where I met people that I now call friends. UL is a school like no other; I assure any student from any part of the world would have the best college experience. Even though my time in Lafayette and at UL came to an end, I feel extremely pleased to call both places my home, because home is not where you are born but where you are well received and where you make memories that last a lifetime.
