    Step 2: Review

    MLC will review the student’s application documents and confirm their SEVIS record is in ACTIVE status. After this review, MLC will send an email to the student with the following:

      1. An acceptance letter to MLC’s Intensive English Program
      2. The MLC Transfer Form

    Step 3: MLC Transfer Form

    Once the student receives the acceptance letter and MLC Transfer form, the student must:

    1. Complete “Section 1” ONLY of the MLC Transfer Form. This gives the current school permission to complete the form and send it to MLC.
    2. Give the Transfer Form to the international advisor/DSO/PDSO at their current school. The advisor/DSO/PDSO must complete this form and send it to MLC.

    Step 4: Transfer Complete

    Once the student’s current school completes the MLC Transfer Form, the school will return the completed form to MLC and transfer the student’s SEVIS record to MLC. MLC will email the student to inform them of the completed transfer, and give them instructions for arriving at MLC and registering for classes.

IMPORTANT

MLC does not accept students whose SEVIS record is Out of Status. If you are not sure of your student status, please contact your school before applying to MLC, or send your advisor’s name and telephone number to MLC.
