The U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s Student and Exchange Visitor Program (SEVP) is committed to facilitating your stay in the United States while you take advantage of our nation’s academic, educational, and cultural offerings. To enhance security without slowing legitimate travel, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has instituted some changes in U.S. entry and exit procedures. Careful planning and preparation by international students can ensure that any delay based on these procedures is minimal.

| Getting to Livingston |
| |
The closest international airport is in Birmingham, Alabama, located approximately two hours from Livingston. There is a small regional airport in Meridian, Mississippi. There is no public transportation from either airport to campus and car rental is not advisable because there are no car rental agencies in Livingston where a rental car can be returned.
