International Student Orientation 2013: An Archway to UGA

ISL organizes an international student orientation each semester for new and transfer international students matriculating to the University of Georgia. The information included in the ISL orientations is not covered by any other orientation program on campus. The spring and summer orientations are a one-day event and the fall orientation is a five-day program. Highlights from ISL's orientation schedules include information concerning immigration issues, taxes for non-residents, cross-cultural adjustment, housing assistance, course registration procedures, Social Security Cards, UGA payroll, and campus tours. Current UGA students serve as orientation leaders (called World Leaders) to assist with international orientation sessions.

International Student Orientation:

International Student Orientation this year will be from July 29 – August 2, 2013, with additional social/educational events on August 3rd and August 4th. We are hosting a number of informative and important sessions during the week including information about Social Security Numbers, housing, and course registration information. We strongly recommend that all new and transfer international students attend this orientation program. Please note that there is a $15 registration fee for this program. Students may register for orientation during the International Student Life check-in process from 10 am until 4:30 pm on Monday, July 29th, in 210 Memorial Hall on the UGA campus.

If you have any questions or concerns, please contact us as soon as possible. Our office number is: 706-542-5867 and our email is ugaisl@uga.edu.
