All new international students must attend the ISSS Orientation to Immigration, Safety and Academics. This is the final orientation meeting ISSS will offer this spring and it is required of all students. Unfortunately we cannot host this meeting in person, but it will be offered via webex and as it is a Saturday, we will keep a tight schedule so that you finish on time.
