How does the FIT Office of International Student Advisors (OISA) assist students?
The Office of International Student Advisors assists all admitted nonimmigrant students with matters pertaining to their nonimmigrant status while studying at FIT. Other matters, like admission to FIT, residency, and transferability of credits, must be addressed to the FIT Office of Admissions. The OISA attempts to provide accurate and current information affecting studies by nonimmigrants. The following advice is based on Citizenship & Immigration Services (CIS) regulations and procedures as of August 2004; these change periodically. Understanding the terms and conditions of status is the individual’s responsibility! For information about status, visit the US Citizenship & Immigration Services (CIS) web site: http://uscis.gov/graphics/index.htm.
