FOR INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS

There is a wealth of information from the International Student & Scholar Services office about visas, immunizations, and everything you need about getting registered and ready for school at Georgia State.

There is also great general advice on what appliances to bring, how to setup utilities, how to get permission to drive in the US and other lifestyle advice that can be found here.

There are many international student associations on campus. If you contact one in advance, someone from one of these organizations may be able to provide airport pick-up service. Don't be afraid to ask.
