All admitted F-1/J-1 international students should complete the required F-1/J-1 Student Immigration course prior to arrival to WashU. This online course will answer many of the questions new students have prior to arrival. After completing the course, you will receive a Certificate of Completion, which is required for your immigration check-in with the Office for International Students and Scholars (OISS) upon arrival to campus for your initial semester at WashU. This is a required course.
