International Student and Scholar Affairs
ISSA serves more than 3000 international community members, and we provide a variety of resources to engage our office and receive responsive, efficient, and thorough immigration advising assistance. Please allow our team eight business days to respond to emails or eform submissions. We review emails daily for urgent situations, and we will respond accordingly; sending multiple emails on the same topic or directly emailing an advisor will not result in a faster response.
