아쉽게도 5개월 이상인경우, 문제가 생길수 있습니다. 다음 ICE 의 Transfer 관련 조항을 참고하시기 바라겠습니다.

2.5. A student with an Active SEVIS record asks, “How long can I wait between ending classes at my transfer-out school and starting classes at my transfer-in school?”
This depends on the student’s circumstances. The transfer-out school controls the student’s SEVIS record until the transfer release date. [8 CFR 214.2(f)(8)(ii)(C)] If classes are in session, he or she must attend classes and otherwise maintain status until the transfer release date.
On the transfer release date, the transfer-in school controls the student’s SEVIS record. He or she must begin classes at the transfer-in school at the next available term, unless taking an authorized break or vacation during that term.
If the next available term does not start within five months of the last date of school attendance or program completion date at the transfer-out school (whichever is earlier), the student must depart the United States until he or she can begin the new program. This will not be handled as a transfer. The student will get a new SEVIS record and the school will send the student an Initial attendance Form I-20. The student must then pay the SEVIS I-901 fee and apply for a new F-1 visa.
감사합니다.
