International Student and Scholar Advising
International Student and Scholar Advising (ISSA) supports Bryn Mawr’s international community through advising, immigration services, programming, advocacy, and outreach.
Our goal is to ensure that every international student and scholar experiences Bryn Mawr as a true “home away from home.” We provide resources and guidance that support a smooth transition and meaningful integration into the campus community.
ISSA also advises students and scholars on U.S. immigration regulations, helping them understand their responsibilities and maintain compliance with federal requirements throughout their stay in the United States.
International Student and Scholar Advising is part of The Impact Center for Community, Equity, and Understanding.
