Yes, LucyMO is right. Just leave the country - you can go to Mexico or Canada and reenter. At the border, you need to surrender your current I-94 and while reentering, get a new I-94 and have the I-20 stamped.
I did the same thing last month when I was out of status - went to Mexico (through ElPaso) and came back.
Good luck

Hi faith4u,
If your reinstatement application is denied, the issue of whether your current visa is cancelled or not is unclear.
I would say - request your DSO to give you a new I-20 with 'Initial Attendance" - tell them you will make a reentry.
Then go to mexico or canada (but be prepared to visit the US consulate for a new visa, in case your visa has indeed been cancelled) and try to enter with your current visa.
If you visa has been cancelled, they would let you know at the Port of Entry.
Yes, if your reinstatement is denied, you need to take corrective measures or leave the country within 15 days.

there is a difference between being "out of status" and bring "unlawfully present" in USA. if reinstatement is denied you will be start accumulating unlawful days, subjecting you to reentry bar of 3/10 years. make sure you get out of country asap and come back in with new I-20/I-94. In case visa is also cancelled or expired you will have to go back to consulate (possibly in home country) for a new one.
