International Student Services (ISS)
The Utah Valley International Student Services provides visa information, employment advice, and academic advisement for UVU's International Students. If you have questions about your visa, immigration status or other issues, you are welcome to visit with one of our advisors in WB-147. Appointments are arranged on a first come first serve basis from Monday - Thursday 9:00 am - 4:00 pm and Friday 12:00 noon - 4:00 pm.
International Student Services activities include conducting an orientation each semester for all new international students, managing the federally mandated Student and Exchange Visitor Information System (SEVIS) to ensure that all international students at UVU are legally "in status" under the federal statutes and regulations, and providing a wide variety of support services designed to promote academic success on the part of international students.
ISS staff also complete the federal documents required for UVU to host a J-Scholar, to monitor the research, and to report to the federal government the completion of the research activities when a scholar returns home. In addition, ISS staff advise the International Student Council, manage international student financial aid, and organize community engagement, service, and many activities.
