Special Announcement:

As part of Case Western Reserve University's reorganization plans, International Student Services (ISS) will be joining Immigration & Human Resources Services (IHRS), and together we will become Visa & Immigration Services & Advisors (VISA).  This new, combined office will serve both international students and international scholars and employees, and will be located in Crawford Hall, Suite 215.  We are moving to our new location on June 26, 2023.

Because Monday, June 26th is moving day, we will not have advising available that day. 







Our Advising Schedule for the week of June 26th will be:

Thursday and Friday:

11 am - 1 pm Virtual Chat Advising
1 pm - 3 pm In-Person Advising

We are excited to welcome you to our new office in Crawford Hall!
