Required Documents of Transfer from one University to another

The regulations of the scholarship stipulates the necessity of the continuation of the student to study uninterruptedly in the designated university. Therefore, the Cultural Mission discourages the transfer of the student to another university unless there are unavoidable circumstances in his original university, which require a transfer or any other circumstances admitted by the Cultural Mission.

Conditions of Transfer from a University to another

  • The student must not transfer from one university to another except by a prior approval of the Cultural Mission or his sponsor.
  • The transfer of the student to another university must not result in the extension of his scholarship.
  • The student must not transfer to more than two universities during the period of his study.
  • The student must not transfer from a university to a community college.
  • The university to which the student wishes to transfer to must be recommended.
  • Both universities must approve the transfer according to the regulations of US immigration (USCIS).

Required Documents of Transfer from one University to another

  • The student who wishes to transfer must submit the following documents to the Cultural Mission:
  • A letter from the student explaining the circumstances and factors which led him to ask for a transfer.
  • A new transcript showing the grades achieved by the student during the period prior to the transfer.
  • An admission letter from the university to which he wishes to transfer showing the transferred credit hours accepted by the new university.
  • *** An official letter indicating the transferred credit hours accepted in the new school.

Required Documents of Transfer from one University to another

The student who wishes to transfer from one university to another must complete the procedures of transfer. Failure to complete these procedures will render the residency of the student illegal and expose him to problems which might adversely affect the continuation of his study; the American authorities are keen to follow-up the files of alien students to ensure that they abide by the (regulations) conditions of residency and its procedures during their stay in the United States of America. The completion of these procedures can be confirmed by obtaining the stamp of the passport and immigration authorities, or the form which confirms the completion of the transfer which is issued by the office of the international students in the university to which the student has transferred.
