ORIENTATION

We appreciate understanding from students as our office will be extremely busy as new arrivals will be transitioning to the U.S. and UAHuntsville.  We request that students drop off necessary requests by Friday July 30.  Please remember that processing times will vary and priority is given to new students during orientation.

Also, walk-in advising hours will be adjusted after Monday August 2^nd:

Tuesday August 3^rd (morning walk-ins only)

Wednesday August 4^th to Tuesday August 10^th *NO WALK-IN ADVISING HOURS*

Please note that Advisors will not be available to meet with students as the office will be facilitating orientation activities but if students must contact us please send an email to visahelp@uah.edu with specific details of the request, including full name and A#.  We will do our best to regain our regular pace after orientation and sincerely appreciate the patience and flexibility of our students.

We would also like to remind all students to PLEASE submit any Address Changes, Reduced Course Load Requests (after signed by Academic Advisors and Department Chair), and Program Extension requests (after signed by Academic Advisor/ Major Professor)  to our office by Friday July 30 at the latest.
