💡 IAU Tuesday Tip
For international students, being proactive can make a meaningful difference in the academic journey.
Angelina Nguyen, Coordinator - DSO, reminds students to stay informed, use available resources, keep immigration documents organized, and communicate early when questions arise. Staying connected with your DSO and the IAU community can help you adapt, maintain your F-1 status, and continue growing academically and professionally in the U.S. 🎓🌎
Small actions today can help you stay prepared for what comes next. 💙🦅
