Appointment Scheduling for Students
Schedule an appointment with your ISSO Advisor based on your school or college. If you have more than one major, look in Academic Summary in your StudentLink and use the school/college that matches the school code for the major that is listed first.
Please schedule one appointment at a time. ISSO may need to modify or cancel appointments in rare cases, especially when multiple appointments are scheduled at once. If you would prefer to meet with your ISSO advisor in person at the ISSO for any reason, please email your ISSO Advisor directly to schedule a mutually available time.
Please review the appointments types to determine which meets your needs:
For quick questions regarding topics such as:
- Maintaining Valid Status
- Travel and Visas
- Basic Employment Questions
- Transferring to Another School
- Full-time Enrollment
- Not sure where to start?
For complex questions regarding topics such as:
- Health, academic or legal issues
- Changing to / from another status
- CPT / OPT / STEM OPT eligibility and questions
- Leave of absence / interruption of study
- Study abroad
- J-1 student Academic Training (AT)
- Pre-Completion OPT
- STEM OPT application questions
This appointment type is not designed for you to learn general information about OPT or STEM OPT. If this is your goal, please review our extensive resources on applying for OPT or applying for STEM OPT. If you still have additional questions after reviewing these materials, please schedule an advising appointment.
