We are very excited to share that we are changing our office name! International Student and Faculty Services (ISFS) will now be known as International Student and Scholar Services (ISSS). This name reflects the international populations that we support, and we are excited to highlight that in our daily work. 

The Office of International Student and Scholar Services contributes to the global mission of Ohio University by providing services and support for the international community and by furthering their personal and intellectual development. In addition, we collaborate with the greater university community to advance global diversity on campus, to foster transformative intercultural experiences, and to promote the development of global leaders. 

Advising Hours

In-Person Drop-in Advising

In-person drop-in advising will take place on Tuesday and Wednesday afternoons from 1:30-4:00 EST.  Come by our office during this time to have a 15 minute appointment with an advisor.  Advisors may request that masks be worn for in-person appointments.

Virtual Drop-in Advising

ISSS will continue to offer a virtual option for drop-in advising. On Friday afternoons from 1:30pm – 4:00pm EST you may join a Zoom meeting with an international student advisor. These drop-in sessions will last no more than 15 minutes.  You can find information on joining this zoom meeting here.
