Support From the Start

Leaving home to study in a new country is an incredible adventure. vlog supports its international students in this endeavor even before arriving on campus. vlog’s Office of International Student Services contacts each international student to provide guidance through the visa and travel process.

First-year international students also attend an international student orientation before their first semester where they are acquainted with their surroundings, receive cultural adjustment support, and begin to build friendships with peers.
