ALL international students are required to check-in with an
international advisor in person and provide the following documents:

*         Copy of I-20 first and last page with port of entry stamp
showing.  Transfer students will need to provide copies of ALL previous
I-20's.  You may contact your previous school(s) and they will have a
copy on record.

*         Copies of passport, visa, and I-94 (both sides) with port of
entry stamp showing. 

*         Current physical address in home country and in U.S.  We
understand the U.S. address may be a temporary address such as a friends
address or hotel but we will need an address.

*         Emergency contact information for family or friend in your
home country and in the U.S.

 

Check-in will be from Wednesday, August 18 to Wednesday, August 25

CHECK-IN THE DAY OF ORIENTATION.    

 

International student orientation is on Thursday, August 26 starting at
8:30am in the PAC (Performing Arts Center) and is mandatory for all new
international students. We will have sessions in the morning with a
student organization fair, participate in an on-campus tradition with
other students, a tentative free catered lunch (with vegetarian option)
with university faculty/staff, and sessions in the afternoon before
students will be released to their academic departments.   Please go to

International Student Services office is located in room 104 of the
