International Student Guidelines

While the Office of Graduate Admission is responsible for issuing I-20s/DS-2019s for incoming students, the Office of International Services (OIS) helps international students adjust to and fully participate in the USC campus community once they arrive at USC. Throughout the academic year, OIS provides:

• Counseling for personal, academic, and financial problems.
• Immigration advisement.
• Social and cultural exchange programs.
• Advisement for student clubs.
• Information about employment authorization for international students.
• English classes for the spouses of international students and visiting scholars.

For more information about entering the United States, transportation to and from campus, and enrollment, please visit the Arriving in the United States section of the Office of International Services website.
