New Student Orientation

All new international students on an F visa or J visa are required to attend the International Student Orientation. During this orientation, you will receive vital information about immigration requirements and legal obligations to maintain your legal status, along with other essential details.

It’s important to note that the International Student Orientation is separate from the general New Student Orientation. Both orientations are mandatory, and all incoming international students must attend both events.
