Who are we?
International Student Services recognizes international students as a vital part of UW–Madison. We are committed to educating and empowering students to make informed decisions and working with them to advocate for a globally inclusive community. We support this through three operational areas:
Advising
We advise F and J international students, alumni, and their dependents on their journey to, through, and beyond UW–Madison. We do this by remaining relevant on immigration policy, compliance, education, and advocacy. We aim to, in partnership with campus stakeholders, empower students to successfully achieve their educational and personal goals.
Compliance & Operations
We ensure institutional compliance with federal regulations and university policy by maintaining data integrity, providing technical expertise in Terra Dotta, and supporting logistical functions for daily operations.
Global Engagement
We seek to intentionally and holistically support international students, campus, and the Madison community through coordinating events and programs that foster a sense of belonging, promote advocacy, and enhance global engagement.
