On almost all U.S. university campuses, the
international student adviser (ISA) is the main source of
assistance, advice, and other personal support you might need
while you are in the United States. The ISA usually is based
in an International Students Office, or department with a
similar name, and is the person responsible for your orientation
on arrival and for helping with visa and tax issues. If there
is no official international student adviser at your chosen
college or university, there will be some other person assigned
to work with international students, at least on a part-time
basis. When you receive your acceptance letter, you should
receive the name of the international student adviser or of
another person who acts in this capacity. If no name is listed,
request the information from the admissions office or check
your college's or university's Web site. Write to the international
student adviser or other appropriate person, informing him
or her of your arrival date.
