International Student Orientation

All new international students are required to complete International Student Orientation (ISO) before starting classes at Concordia. ISO is an online orientation designed to provide all the information and tools you will need to succeed as a student at CUI. Before the semester begins, the Moon International Center staff will contact you to assist with your enrollment process and provide access to the ISO portal.

International Student Welcome Day

Thursday, August 19th, 2021

To make your transition easier, international students are allowed to check-in early! On International Student Welcome Day, our team of International Student Ambassadors (ISAs) will be available to help you check into your dorm, take you shopping for essentials, and show you around the area.

All new international students (including those living off-campus) must check in on International Student Welcome Day to complete their legal orientation.

Arrival Information

If you’re living on campus, make sure to book a flight that will arrive on or before International Student Welcome Day. You will only be able to move into your dorm on your designated check-in day. If you decide to arrive before move-in day, you will need to make your own hotel arrangement.

Local Hotel Recommendations and Airport Shuttles

The Moon International Center has a team of student volunteers who will help you check into your dorm and shop for essentials to make your room feel like home. You can also have your dorm essentials shipped ahead and waiting for you. Just enter Concordia’s address in the shipping information and make sure to order early enough for them to arrive before you do. Check out these great options!
