International Students

The items below are intended to provide general guidance and context for important decisions the University’s international populations are facing at this time. For specific advising, please contact the University’s International Services Office (ISO) at questions@iso.rochester.edu.

You may also contact your specific school for details around academic program modifications.

The ISO website offers the latest updates and answers to frequently asked questions about immigration, including maintaining status, academics and online study, employment, travel, and visas.

In addition, the Office of Global Engagement suggests these web resources for any students traveling internationally back to their home country. These will help you know if there are restrictions on flight arrivals, mandatory quarantines upon return, or other travel details.
