Come and obtain an education for life in a community where students come from all over the world, and where you will be included in our family with friendships that will last for a lifetime.
Tiffin University appreciates the diversity and breadth of multicultural experiences that international students bring to the campus community. Their presence at Tiffin University has helped U.S. students to gain a better understanding of the greater global community. International students add so much to what Tiffin University has to offer, they have traveled thousands of miles from their homes not only to obtain a quality education here at Tiffin University, but also to learn about the United States, its culture and its people.
Our staff in the International Student Services Office can assist you with the transition so that you feel at home here on our intimate, exciting campus. Besides interacting with classmates from various backgrounds and cultures, international students are also given the opportunity to work with faculty and staff to ensure that your experience at Tiffin University is fulfilling.
Welcome to the Office of International Services
The Office of International Student Services (ISS) coordinates international activities and collaborative efforts on Tiffin’s campus and around the world through programming, services, and development. We work with faculty, staff, and students in the areas of international programs and international services.
The Office of International Student Services is led by the Director of International Student Services, and Graduate Assistant. The office provides leadership for international initiatives and strategies, and coordinates development and utilization of resources to expand and maximize internationalization efforts.
International Services
Our international services area assists international students, faculty, staff, and visitors with immigration (visas), employment and tax matters. We also coordinate with other campus offices to develop programming and activities to insure Tiffin's international faculty, students and visitors are fully integrated into the campus community. Many multicultural programs and activities are planned throughout the year.
International Services: Students & Scholars
The Office of International Student Services (ISS) works with the international student population from the moment they have deposited to Tiffin University until the time they successfully reach their academic goals. We also work with scholars and international visitors. Initially, we provide immigration documents for visa applications. Throughout the students or scholars time here on campus, the ISS staff will meet with them on a one-on-one basis, or in large groups, such as the New International Student Orientation, to provide information about maintaining their status, employment possibilities, travel, visas, and culture shock.
In working with international scholars and exchange visitors, our advisors are highly-trained in the nuances of obtaining entry visas for those individuals who are sponsored by the university to assist in the exchange of ideas and research. We also encourage our exchange visitors to take part in opportunities to share information on their culture, research, or language with the Tiffin community.
Beyond working directly with the Tiffin international community, ISS also meets, advises, and provides training opportunities to Tiffin administrators to introduce and reaffirm policies, programs, and concepts applicable to our international students, faculty, staff, and scholars.
