International Student & Scholar Services (ISSS)
From pre-arrival to departure, we support international students and scholars at every stage—from the Maryland application process, visa and immigration requirements, and how to make the most of their experience while at Maryland, making our international community feel at home is our top-priority.
The Office of International Affairs (OIA)
For us, the heartbeat of our work is elevating the international character of the university through facilitating international partnerships, events, and opportunities for our Terrapin network. Through a strategic approach, accounting for the diversity of our community, we champion all Maryland Global offices and campus partners in their endeavors to integrate global learning for all. Using multiple channels, we also communicate the work of our offices and constituents, reaching, growing, engaging and inspiring diverse and interested audiences.
