Student and Exchange Visitor Information System (SEVIS)
The Student and Exchange Visitor Information System (SEVIS) is an online system used by the U.S. government to track and manage information about international students and exchange visitors. It helps ensure that these individuals maintain their legal status while studying or participating in exchange programs in the U.S. SEVIS collects data about their enrollment, personal information, and visa status, which schools and government agencies access. This system supports compliance with immigration laws and enhances national security while facilitating international education and cultural exchange.
