International Scholar Services Core

Overview of Services

The International Scholar Services Core (ISS) is committed to the internationalization of Purdue University by providing appropriate services and support to international clientele and various University departments and offices. ISS seeks to enhance the actural, and social pursuits of students and scholars from abroad through knowledge and expertise in recruitment, admissions, immigration, and advising. 

International Scholar Services are responsible for all aspects of the employment-based immigration sponsorship of international faculty, staff and scholars. As part of this, we prepare and submit Purdue-sponsored requests for immigration benefits to various government agencies. We charge Academic departments ISS Fees for each official request we process.
