International Student & Scholar Services (ISSS) leads efforts to orient, support, and assist the students and scholars who call Miami home.

ISSS welcomes international students to campus with a comprehensive orientation program that consists of information sessions, activities and small group discussions designed to ensure that students’ academic and personal needs are met and that immigration and health requirements are fulfilled.

In addition to processing visa documents and updating government records, ISSS advisors assist students and scholars with maintaining legal status in the U.S. and obtaining benefits such as work authorization.

ISSS proactively monitors the academic success of international students and reaches out to those students experiencing academic difficulty to provide information on university policies, procedures, and campus resources.
