International Student Advising

The role of the International Student Advisor at Curry College is to aid international students in the navigation of the U.S. government immigration policies. It is our goal to assist you in the interpretation of these complex regulations and to support you in the attainment and maintenance of legal status. The U.S. government requires all international students to meet strict eligibility requirements prior to being granted a student visa and also during their stay in the United States.
