The person performing the primary function will be to provide full cycle support for all international students coming to UNCG from partner institutions or directly for degree programs. The person will also assist with partnership relations and agreement management efforts as needed and support duties as assigned in conjunction with the Associate Director of Study Abroad and Exchanges. The person will be providing advice and counsel on all issues of importance and concern to international students and scholars, and sharing responsibilities for generating foreign student and scholar data reports from the Student & Exchange Visitor System ( SEVIS ) real-time interface, and the University’s student information system of record to ensure compliance with Federal and Commonwealth standards and to maintain data integrity.
