Student and Exchange Visitor Information System (SEVIS) Report
What is SEVIS?
The Student and Exchange Visitor Information System (SEVIS) is a U.S. government internet-based
system that tracks current information on non-immigrant students (F and M visas), exchange visitors (J
visa), and their dependents (F-2, M-2, and J-2). SEVIS allows schools and program sponsors to transmit
electronic information and event notifications via the internet to the U.S. Department of Homeland
Security (DHS) and U.S. Department of State (DOS) throughout the student’s/exchange visitor’s stay in
the United States. SEVIS reflects changes in international student or exchange visitor status, admission at
the Port of Entry (POE), changes of address, changes in program of study, employment authorizations, and
other events. Immigration forms I-20 (F visas) and DS-2019 (J visas) are also issued through SEVIS.
The International Student and Scholar Services (ISSS) was responsible for maintaining records in SEVIS
for students, scholars, faculty, and dependents for the Fall 2015 semester that totals 5,951.

Non-Immigrant Enrollment - Institute of International Education*
Top 25 Countries of Origin Report
Open Doors Report Explanation
The next few pages contain information specific to International Student and Scholar Services' reporting data to the
Institute of International Education(IIE). It depicts non-immigrant enrollment counts by country of origin and field
of study for the Fall 2015 semester at the University of Houston. Field of study designations were determined
based on the Classification of Instructional Program (CIP) Codes associated with the student's primary major.
These codes are not specific to a certain College and should not be compared in this way. The following graphs
will identify the trends at UH for the top sending countries in the world and what part Unversity of Houston plays
in this role. The first page will have information regarding enrollment of the top 25 countries in the U.S. while the
following two pages have information for CIP code designation. As you will note, the top 25 sending countries to
the U.S. are not the same as the top countries that are enrolled at UH. Iran and Vietnam are in our top five while
Nigeria is a top 10 sending country for UH.

F-1 Employment Statistics: Optional Practical Training (OPT)
Non-immigrant students on the F-1 visa have the option of pursuing a 12-month employment benefit, immediately following
completion of their degree program. The student must apply with the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS)
for permission to work. The student is able to accept employment that is directly related to her/his major area of study for a specified
time period, upon approval. This time period is referred to as Optional Practical Training (OPT). Students graduating from certain
science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) disciplines designated by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security
may be eligible for an additional 17-month extension for a combined 29 months of OPT. 1,100 F-1 alumni from 66 nations
participated in Optional Practical Training during Fall 2015.

Language and Culture Center Enrollment: Fall 2015
The Language and Culture Center (LCC) is located on the University of Houston campus and provides students the ability to
experience life at an American university while learning English as a Second Language (ESL) through a variety of courses
designed to integrate them into the American educational system. LCC has provided intensive English Instruction for
international students on the University of Houston campus since 1975. LCC students may apply for admission to UH upon
successful completion of the sixth and final level and passing TOEFL scores. Students enrolled in LCC programs are not enrolled
in degree-seeking courses at UH and are therefore not included in the international student enrollment figures indicated earlier in
this report. During Fall 2015, international students from 36 nations participated in LCC programs.
