J-1: Change of Program, Degree Level, or Funding

Your Form DS 2019 indicates:

• degree program (major)
• degree level (bachelor's, master's, PhD)
• funding source

If at any time there is a change in these areas, a new Form DS 2019 indicating the change must be prepared by the ISS office. When requesting a change, submit a Student Request Form and submit with it the following:

• Form DS 2019
• proof of the change (a letter from your department or funding source is generally sufficient)
• passport
• Form I-94 card
