国际学生班车 – Entering into a new city, state, or country for the first time can be overwhelming. Trying to navigate our taxi or transportation system can be difficult, and we want our students to have a smooth start to their UM journey. This is why we are offering a free shuttle to 国际学生 at the beginning and conclusion of each semester. For students to take advantage of this service they must provide necessary flight information, and the flight must fall within a certain time frame. We also coordinate with 澳门在线赌城娱乐 in providing this service. 请联络杰森·佩里 (jperry5@cc-fc.com) for more information on this service.
International Student Advisory Committee – The International Student Advisory Committee’s mission is to advocate for the needs of our 国际学生 and make sure they have the necessary support to be successful. With the advisement of campus staff, 学生领袖, 最重要的是, 国际学生, we hope to provide every student with the resources they need to make the most of their UM journey.
