International Students
As a new international student at The University of Texas at Austin, you are required to complete an International Briefing and Check-In (IBC). You will learn about immigration, work eligibility in the U.S., how to obtain U.S. forms of identification (i.e. driver's license and social security number), health insurance requirements, and what else you need to do in order to register for classes.
Pre-Arrival
There are many tasks to take care of before you arrive to study in a different country. This list will help you make sure you remember some of the most important ones. Education USA is a very helpful website developed by the U.S. Department of State which includes information about graduate study and pre-departure information and resources.
