Scam Alerts
Many students receive scam calls or emails. You may be next! Scam artists often pretend to be government employees such as Police, FBI, IRS, Immigration and Customs Enforcement. They often threaten students to take an immediate action such as making a payment. U.S. government employees will NEVER call you nor email you and NEVER ask you to make payments. Please report any suspicious communication to ISSS!
About ISSS:
International Student and Scholar Services (ISSS) is a part of the Office of Global Affairs (OGA) at University of Washington Tacoma. The work of ISSS is comprised of three functional areas: F-1 Student and J-1 Scholar Advising, Programming and Outreach.
Mission:
The International Student and Scholar Services office at UW Tacoma serves F-1 International Students with non-immigrant immigration advising, programming, and support. We also suppot J-1 Scholars and their Academic Unit Hosts. We believe a student and scholar body rich in diversity — culturally, socially and economically — contribute significantly to a dynamic and energetic learning community.
