As an International Student Adviser, I help students from diverse cultural and educational backgrounds transition smoothly into their new academic environment. I’m here to provide expert guidance on everything from visa requirements and cultural adaptation to academic planning and personal well-being.
Key Responsibilities:


Visa and Immigration Support: Assisting students in understanding and maintaining their visa status is a primary responsibility. This includes helping with documentation, keeping them informed about legal requirements, and guiding them through any changes in immigration policies.


Academic Advising: I work with students to ensure they are on track academically, helping them select courses that align with their goals, understand credit requirements, and resolve any academic challenges they may face.


Cultural Adjustment Support: Moving to a new country can be overwhelming, so I offer guidance on cultural norms, communication skills, and campus life, helping students feel comfortable and connected in their new environment.


Resource Connection: I connect students to various on-campus resources, including career counseling, mental health support, academic tutoring, and language assistance, ensuring they have access to all the tools they need to thrive.


Community Building: I encourage engagement in social and extracurricular activities to help students make friends, network, and enjoy a well-rounded university experience. Organizing events and orientation programs for international students also promotes a sense of community and belonging.


Crisis and Conflict Management: When challenges arise, whether related to academics, finances, health, or interpersonal issues, I provide support and solutions, guiding students to the right resources and helping them resolve issues effectively.
