You should plan to arrive on campus in time to attend OIA’s mandatory orientation for all international students. Some international students may want to arrive early to participate in an intensive Summer English Language Institute at International House.

As you continue to adjust to your new life and academic environment, OIA is there to advise you and your family about immigration and related matters (e.g., employment, Social Security, driver’s licenses, other regulatory issues) and provide a wide range of programming and support.
