At the beginning of the fall and spring semester the International Student Center conducts an orientation program for all new international students. The program is designed to inform new students of important immigration regulations and to familiarize them with the university and the Manhattan community.
Orientation provides important and valuable opportunities for you, to get information that won't be as easily obtained later on. Many current international and American students volunteer to assist during orientation so it is also gives the newcomers an opportunity to meet new friends upon arrival.
The Spring 2009 International Student Orientation will begin on Thursday, January 8th. Please refer to this website in the coming weeks for a full spring orientation schedule.
