Should I transfer to a different college while asylum pending?

Hello guys,

I have a question. Will it affect my asylum application if I apply for an F1 status in a different school? Doesn't a new I -20 automatically annul my asylum petition because when I sign the new I 20, I would be agreeing to leave the country because it is the first requirement of F1 visa? Does not it mean that i become a NON-immigrant intent from the day I sign the new I-20?

Thank you.

No need to worry about that. Transferring to a different school is a way to maintain your status but not to change your status.
