International Student & Scholar Services
Supporting Whitman’s International Community
International Student and Scholar Services (ISSS) assist the international community in acclimating to life in the U.S. and at Whitman and facilitate meaningful opportunities for international students, faculty, and staff to contribute to the Whitman community. The office is responsible for international student orientation, immigration services, and student advising up to three years post-graduation, and offers a variety of other programs to support the academic and personal well-being of the international community.
Getting Started at Whitman
Whitman College offers a dedicated orientation program to help new international students acclimate to life in the U.S. and on campus. Starting in late August 2024, this mandatory program provides vital resources and guidance for F-1 and J-1 visa students, ensuring a smooth transition to life at Whitman.
