The Student and Exchange Visitor Information System (SEVIS) Privacy Impact Assessment

Overview SEVIS is an Internet-based system that allows DHS to collect, maintain and use accurate and current information on nonimmigrant students, their dependents, and the approved schools and designated United States sponsors that host nonimmigrant students. SEVIS enables schools and sponsors to transmit information, via the Internet, to DHS, ICE, and DoS throughout a student or exchange visitor's stay in the United States. SEVIS receives event notifications (electronic updates to SEVIS records on students and exchange visitors) and maintains up-to-date information about events involving nonimmigrant students and exchange visitors.
