There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

Full Summary:
No summary paragraph submitted.
I-20 updated formSEVIS recently underwent a major upgrade and one of the changes is a new version of the form I-20. You will receive the new version when a change is made to your I-20, such as a change of major, request for OPT, updated financial information, etc. All students must have the new version by July 2016 so if a change has not been made on your I-20 by this date, OIE will ensure that you have a copy of the new version.
While there are some changes to the new I-20, the included information has not changed significantly, and the new look should have no or limited impact when you’re applying for benefits such as a driver’s license or social security number. When you get the new version of the I-20, please make sure to review the information carefully to ensure that it’s correct.
Please see the Study in the States website for detailed information about changes to the I-20.
