Orientation

Memorial Student Union (Room 101)
The International Students and Scholars
Office (ISSO) provide new international student orientation in both the
fall and spring semesters of each academic year. The sessions are set
before classes begin so that new students will feel more comfortable
moving about the campus and gaining access to the information they need
to begin their program of study and live in their new academic and
social communities.
The Orientation session is mandatory for
new international students in F and J status because critical
information regarding academic standing requirements, immigration
regulations and requirements, U.S. tax regulations/treaties, health
insurance instructions, and ISSO programs and services is discussed.
Further, students who have not yet checked into the ISSO can schedule
an appointment to complete the mandatory check-in process. New students
will also be informed of existing and updated information regarding
eligibility to receive work authorization and social security number
approval and engage socially with members of the International Student
Association (ISA).
