Orientation and IPO Check-In
A mandatory orientation session is required for all new 蘑菇视频 international students. This includes transfer students. More information regarding orientation is found on our orientation page.
You are also required to check-in with IPO within 15 days of the start of the semester. Failure to complete your IPO check-in will place you in violation of your immigration status.
