The UMass Dartmouth community warmly welcomes our international students and scholars. We are proud of the diversity of our international students, faculty, and scholars, representing many different countries.
- The International Student & Scholar Center (ISSC) provides support for visas as well as required documentation for international students and scholars while in the United States. We do not provide legal advice. If you wish, we can provide a list of legal services you can pursue.
- Provide general advice and assistance with campus life and personal needs.
- Offer workshops on employment and other subjects of interest.
- Co-sponsor cultural events with other organizations on campus.
Visit and keep in touch
New international students and scholars must check-in at the ISSC as soon as possible after their arrival on campus. Returning students must check-in at the beginning of every semester.
We look forward to your visit and getting to know you.
