Mandatory International Orientation Session<\/h2>\n

As an international student, regardless of your visa type, you will have extra requirements and information you will need. This means students\u00a0must<\/strong>\u00a0attend two different orientations<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. International Student Orientation with ISSS<\/li>\n
  2. New Student Orientation for all incoming undergraduate students<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    We have combined both of these sessions into a three-day program designed to help you learn how to achieve academic, social, and regulatory success during your time at Marymount University.\u00a0 In addition to the goals of New Student Orientation, International Student Orientation will help you:<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Develop a clear understanding of the regulatory requirements of maintaining legal F-1 status in the United States and empower you to take responsibility of your immigration record.<\/li>\n
    2. Familiarize yourself with Marymount and US education systems, academic planning, and more.<\/li>\n
    3. Connect with other international students before you meet the larger Marymount community.<\/li>\n
    4. Complete the mandatory Immigration Check-In process required for you to activate and maintain your F-1 record.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
