The International Student
Office (ISO) provides immigration advising to nearly
1,000 non-immigrant students in F-1 visa status.
The ISO also issues U.S.
Department of State Certificate of Eligibility for
Exchange Visitor (J-1 visa) status (Form DS-2019).
Departmental chairs or college deans who wish to
invite non-tenure track international exchange
visitors to DePaul, for purposes of teaching,
academic collaboration, and/or research, may request
issuance of Form DS-2019 from the ISO.
Non-immigrant students in need
of assistance with matters related to maintenance of
non-immigrant status, employment authorization
requests, travel and re-entry into the U.S. from
abroad, and lawful transfer into DePaul University
from another U.S. educational institution, should
contact the ISO at 312.362.8376 after visiting the
ISO website, at
