Welcome and congratulations on your acceptance to Emory College of Arts and Sciences!
Orientation for international students begins on Friday, August 23rd at 8am, unless the student is participating in the ACE program. You'll be able to move into your residence hall that day, as well as go shopping for additional supplies for your room, attend the mandatory immigration session, and meet other international students and their families at a welcome dinner that evening. Orientation Leaders will be available during the day to help you find your residence hall and answer questions
All new international students must bring their original documents to the immigration session of International Student Orientation on August 23rd. This includes Form I-20 or DS-2019 (the document issued by Emory University,) and your passport. Inside your passport, you should have the F-1 or J-1 entry visa stamp (unless you are a citizen of a country that is visa exempt) as well as the I-94 Arrival/Departure record, a small white card that will be issued to you at the U.S. port of entry.
Please visit the International Student and Scholar Services (ISSS) website for more information about preparing for your arrival to Emory. Please also check this site frequently as we'll update it throughout the summer.
