International graduate student orientation sessions cover important
information regarding F-1 Student and
J-1 Exchange
Visitor student visa regulations, obtaining local driver's
licenses, social
security cards, traveling, and employment options. This time is also
used for the official mandatory check-in for graduate students; all students
should plan to bring their I-20 (F-1 Student) or DS-2019 (J-1 Exchange Visitor)
Forms, other documents proving immigration status, visas, passports, I-94
cards, and insurance information (J-1 Exchange Visitors only), as well as
relevant documents for any accompanying dependents such as a child or spouse.
International graduate students are encouraged to bring any accompanying
dependents to the orientation sessions. Orientation and check-in sessions are
approximately one hour.
Orientation sessions in the fall are scheduled in accordance with the school
or programs general orientation schedule. For instance, graduate students
who are enrolling at the Tuck Business School will have an international
orientation and check-in scheduled during and incorporated into their regular
orientation. Graduate students in the Arts & Sciences, including the
MALS program, have their international orientation and official check-in times
scheduled at the International Office twice weekly on Tuesdays and Fridays at
at 10am for F-1 visa holders and at 11am for J-1 visa holders during the months
of August and September. Advanced sign up is strongly recommended. For
locations, as well as to sign up, please e-mail the International.Office@Dartmouth.EDU.
