International Travel

If you are planning international travel, please familiarize yourself with potential visa/immigration issues that could affect your exit from and re-entry into the United States, including, but not limited to, visa issuance at U.S. consulates and embassies, security screening, and the visa/immigration obligations of foreign nationals traveling to the United States. 

We encourage you to make an appointment with an advisor in the International Office to discuss your circumstances and travel plans. Foreign nationals should complete and submit a Travel Letter Request Form (PDF / Online) as soon as possible prior to traveling.
