Change of Level

If you are switching from one degree level to another, this needs to be processed in SEVIS as a Change of Level. Please submit your changes here and we will update your SEVIS record accordingly. Please note that you must be admitted to the new program/major, have provided adequate proof of finances to your Laker Portal, and your new program/major must be reflected in Banner as well.

Processing Time: Change of Level requests are processed based on when all the requirements are met. This means the processing time varies and we cannot guarantee a turn-around time for this type of request.
