FACULTY & SCHOLAR ADVISING SERVICES
The ISSS staff is available to answer any questions that international faculty and scholars may have about their immigration status at Rutgers. International Faculty and Scholar Advisors are able to consult on questions relating to extensions, changes of status, maintenance of status, travel, scope of permissible activities, and other matters relating to employment-based sponsorship. We also partner with university departments as some questions may require further consultation with sponsoring departments.
