From May 27 to May 31, our office will be closed.  May 27, Tulane University is closed in observance of Memorial Day.  May 28- May 31, the entire OISS team will be attending the NAFSA Annual Conference.  As the most important annual event for international educators, this conference will provide our team with vital updates and ideas that will help us to better serve our international community.  As a bonus, we’re using this opportunity to update the carpet at 6901 Willow. 

If you have any timely requests, such as an OPT, CPT, or Academic Training application or a program extension, please be sure to get complete application to your OISS advisor no later than Friday, May 17 to allow for 3 to 5 business days for processing.  If not, we may not be able to complete your request before the conference. 

During this time, we’ll be monitoring our email for true immigration emergencies, but please be sure to expect a delay in our response.  We’ll still be there if you really need us. 

Thank you for your cooperation,

The OISS Team

International Student, Chen Yu, Blogs About Study Abroad Experience in Prague

International students begin their study abroad experience on the first day of their time at Tulane University. As they experience life as a student at a university in the United States, many are tempted to participate in a traditional study abroad program.  There are many reasons why some international students are drawn to leave this new country for another and possibly more than one other country.  Being able to live and study in a new country is an amazing opportunity that benefits students personally as well as academically and professionally.  Read more about international student, Chen Yu's,  study abroad experience in Prague.
