International Student and Scholar Office

Overview

Welcome to the web page of Albert Einstein College of Medicine's International Student and Scholar Office (ISSO). The ISSO serves as a resource regarding immigration matters for the Einstein community. We are here to provide guidance to our international visitors and their families on matters relating to their studies and employment. This office is the college liaison for the Albert Einstein College of Medicine with the Department of State and the United States Citizenship & Immigration Services (USCIS).

The ISSO is located on the Jack & Pearl Resnick Campus, 1300 Morris Park Avenue, Belfer Building, Room 1201, Bronx, NY, 10461. The office hours are from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., Monday through Thursday. It is recommended that an appointment be scheduled to discuss any concerns or questions. 

Immigration Announcements

The United States Citizenship & Immigration Services requires that all nonimmigrants report a change of address to the Service within ten days of moving. There is no fee for the processing of the form and the procedure is very simple. The USCIS form AR-11 allows you to change your address online.

Once you complete the AR-11, make a copy for yourself and one for the ISSO. Send the copy to the ISSO, Belfer Building Room 1201 so we may update your record in SEVIS.
