“Immigration 101” Provides Resources for Faculty & Academic Advisors of International Students

Faculty and academic advisors interact on a regular basis with international students at UNC Charlotte and may at times be caught off-guard by the various learning styles and sets of expectations based upon non-U.S. educational systems.  In addition, they may not fully realize the enormous pressure felt by international students due to additional responsibilities such as abiding by immigration regulations, finding part-time work, and living up to family expectations in their home countries. 

The ISSO offers a workshop each Fall semester, entitled “Immigration 101” which covers some of these topics, and invites anyone who is interested in learning more to attend.
