SCHEDULE A VIRTUAL APPOINTMENT

We now offer in-person appointments on both KSU campuses from 9am-4pm. Students and international faculty and staff can schedule an in-person appointment below.

SCHEDULE AN IN-PERSON APPOINTMENT

There will be an advisor available for short (<15 minutes) questions. If you come outside of those hours, we will ask you to schedule an appointment and return later. If you want to meet with a specific advisor or have complex questions about topics, please schedule an appointment.

If you are experiencing an immigration emergency outside of normal business hours, please call the KSU Department of Public Safety at +1-470-578-6666 and tell them that you need to speak to an ISSSO staff member. You will be redirected to an ISSS advisor for assistance.
