Teaching International Students

International students enrich the WCU academic community and provide new perspectives to the teaching/learning environment.  Each culture is different and requires special knowledge about the culture's social norms, religious viewpoints, and cultural expectations.

 

Advising International Students

Please remember that since international students are on a student visa to study in the United States, there are certain restrictions regarding course load, withdrawing from classes, documented illness, working off-campus, student participation in internships, that must be reported to the International Student Advisor or the international student could compromise his/her visa status.

If you have any questions about this, consult the IPS website for international students to maintain F-1 visa status or J-1 visa status or email the International Student Advisor, Beth Walden at ewalden@wcu.edu.
