Announcements for the Week of July 14 to 21 2011

SEEKING Volunteers, thank you to those that have already contacted the ISSO!

Once again, we are looking for current students and recent alumni interested in volunteering to welcome the group of newly admitted students arriving to start their degrees at UAHuntsville this August. We have plenty to do to prepare for the arrival of new students and want to be sure that we provide the best welcome and assistance possible to help all of the new students to be successful academically and personally. With your help we can meet our office goals! We are in need of students with a variety of talents and interests. While we wish I could hire international students in paid positions, the ISSO budget does not provide funds to hire students. We will try to have some fun "incentives" to thank you for your hard work

If you would like to volunteer in the office occasionally during the summer semester or specifically during the peak arrival times of the new students please send an email to visahelp@uah.edu  with your full name, email address you prefer to receive correspondence, phone number, languages you speak, your summer availability (especially between August 7-August 17) and any details you think we need to know about you to help us as we prepare for the fall student arrival activities.

No walk-in advising hours the morning of Tuesday July 26, 2011

We apologize for any inconvenience but due to a morning meeting we are unable to have walk-in advising hours on Tuesday July 26 from 10am to 12 noon.  The afternoon walk-in advising hours will stay the same, 1:30 to 4:00pm.

Enrollment Services Offices Closed Friday July 29, 2011

The offices of Enrollment Services (ISSO, Admissions, Registrar, Charger Central, and Financial Aid) will be closed for the annual division planning meeting.  Temporary staff will be available in Charger Central to assist with basic information but we ask that students do not drop off or pick up documents if at all possible.  The staff will return on Monday and follow up on any calls missed Friday.

We apologize in advance for the inconvenience and appreciate your understanding.

Thank you,

International Student Advisors
