Welcome
Here at CalArts we are looking forward to your arrival and start of your program! As a new international student to CalArts, you are required to come to the two-day New Student International Orientation. At the orientation you will meet new students, learn about important F-1 visa rules, learn about campus resources and participate in actives. Breakfast, lunch and van trips are included.
All F-1 students are REQUIRED to "check-in" with the Office of International Students and Programs in order for us to change your status in SEVIS from F-1 Initial to F-1 Active. The New Student International Orientation is where you will "check-in" for your status change.
