The Student and Exchange Visitor Program (SEVP) is a U.S. government initiative that manages the enrollment of international students and exchange visitors in academic and vocational programs. It ensures that these individuals maintain their legal status while studying in the United States, providing guidelines for schools and students. SEVP oversees the Student and Exchange Visitor Information System (SEVIS), which tracks and monitors the status of international students and exchange visitors. This program is essential for maintaining the integrity of the U.S. education system and ensuring compliance with immigration laws.
