International Student and Scholar Services

The International Student and Scholar Services (ISSS) supports the academic mission of the university by providing specific programs and services to international students and scholars. The main role of the ISSS is to facilitate compliance with federal regulations that govern the immigration status of international students and scholars during their time at Stevens. The ISSS provides educational workshops, information, and services in support of these regulations.

The ISSS office is responsible for all international student and scholar immigration-related matters, including the issuance and/or processing of:

Form I-20, F-1 visa

DS-2019, J-1 visa (students and scholars)

H-1B applications for temporary workers in specialty occupations

University-sponsored Lawful Permanent Resident (LPR) applications

Employment authorization documents (EADs)

The ISSS also promotes international and multicultural understanding by providing cross-cultural opportunities and events for Stevens’ international population.
