How I Help 学生 at A&移动商务?

I strive to offer individualized advice to each student who walks into our office. I approach each student's issue with care and understanding. No immigration situation is the same, and each student needs tailored guidance to meet their needs. My top priority is to ensure that our international population is well represented and advocated for on campus. The 办公室 of 国际项目 emphasizes quality service and care while creating pathways of opportunity for our international and domestic students, and I am excited to lead this charge! I am willing and able to work with anyone who wants to be a part of our international 狮子 family.
