Attention International Students
International students registering for classes or enrolling in programs must provide proof of VISA status upon registration. F-1 and J-1 students living in the United States will be allowed to count, per semester, only one distance learning (online) course, or 3 credits, toward the full-time undergraduate course load (12 hours) or the full-time graduate course load (9 hours). The "ultimate responsibility" to know and follow the USCIS rules rests upon the students themselves. Students on B-1, B-2, or F-2 visas may not register for any academic classes.

Note: In registering for courses and/or accepting admission into the University, each student assumes responsibility for knowledge of and compliance with the definitions, regulations, and procedures of the University pertaining to his or her student status as set forth in the appropriate University of Massachusetts Lowell, Division of Continuing Studies website, publications, and catalog.
