What We Provide

        

 

The Office of International Programs and Services promotes, provides, and supports international and intercultural educational opportunities for the Lincoln University community and others by serving as information and advising resource, providing international student and scholar services and coordinating special projects.

Support Services

OIPS provides several support services to LU’s international community. These include visa and immigration assistance, personal counseling, and orientation to academic and social life in the U.S. OIPS also facilitates the integration of international students and scholars into the Howard community and promotes awareness of the important contributions of this group to the mission and international character of the University. Finally, OPIS serves as a resource center for information often needed by members of the international and University communities, and functions as an advocate for international students, staff and scholars.

General Services

OIPS provides numerous services and activities to assist international students, staff and faculty with a variety of needs. We publish a calendar once each semester, organize informational meetings with non-University resource people, and maintain information on international student financial aid sources.

Immigration Counseling

OIPS advisors assist students, with F-1, visa and immigration concerns. The office provides assistance with visa extensions, transfers, and application procedures for admission to the University.

Cultural Adjustment Programming

OIPS advisors provide guidance and support to ease the adjustment to life in a new country. This guidance begins with a specialized orientation program for new international students. Orientation is offered at the beginning of each semester. Students are acclimated to U.S. life and culture while learning about the academic environment at L.U. Individual and group orientation sessions are provided to international students upon their arrival to the University.

 OIPS advisors provide limited personal counseling services to members of the University’s international community. OIPS offers assistance with personal concerns and makes referrals to appropriate University and community resources.
