The International Student and Scholar Services (ISSS) team serves as a key resource to the University’s community of international students, scholars, and their families. We provide professional expertise and support to international students from the time of admission to beyond graduation.

We facilitate intercultural and international education and aim to foster a global campus community through comprehensive immigration advisement, compliance and risk management guidance, programming, and advocacy at all levels.
