Getting Started at MCPHS

Welcome International Students to MCPHS!

The Immigration & International Support Services team provides immigration advising and assistance to International Students both before and after their arrival in the U.S. We are here to assist International Students in obtaining and maintaining proper legal Immigration Status while attending MCPHS.

Getting Started: Immigration Check-in

All new International Students (including those coming from high school, an English Language Program, or another college/university) must check-in with the Immigration Services Office when they first arrive to campus so we may ensure that all relevant documents and procedures have been processed and that you have been properly admitted to the U.S.  Immigration and International Support Services will conduct virtual check-ins via global.mcphs.edu

For new F-1 students, Immigration and International Support Services will email you this closer to the start of the semester. When you check-in, the Immigration Services Office will review your immigration documents, perform your initial SEVIS Registration (only for F-1 Students), and provide answers to your questions as you begin your study here at MCPHS.

Failure to check-in with the Immigration Services Office may jeopardize your Immigration Status in the U.S., so please prioritize completing your Initial Check-In at the Immigration Services Office!
