    The Office of International Students and Scholars (OISS) offers dedicated support to help international students thrive academically and personally. We provide one-on-one advising to help students understand U.S. immigration regulations. While OISS is here to guide and assist, students are ultimately responsible for knowing and following all applicable U.S. laws and policies. OISS also ensures that the University remains in full compliance with federal regulations governing F and J visa holders.
