The International Student Services office will have a tent set up by the Campus Welcome Center. Look for our canopy (it's purple with yellow letters). One of our International Peer Mentors will be there to greet you and help you find your way to Residence Life or wherever you might need to go. This tent will only be set up during the hours of 8:30am - 4:30pm. Remember that we will be hosting new international students at our New International Student Dining and Shopping Trip on Thursday, August 30. This is the first chance to meet other new international students, the international peer mentors, and us! Meet at the Student Union Building at 4:30pm. We'll board a bus, go out to eat, and help you get a few things you need for your life here in California.
