International, Immigrant, Undocumented, DACAmented & Refugee Student Services
The Office for International, Immigrant, DACAmented, Undocumented, and Refugee Services at RIC was established to serve students, faculty members, and guests from other countries during their stay on our campus, whether their status is visa student, exchange visitor, immigrant, resident, or refugee.
As a part of the Unity Center, we are here to help students develop a global citizenship mindset, that helps them better understand their positionality in this world in order to better navigate it. We also connect students to immigration services, introduce them to scholarship, internship and fellowship opportunities, and most importantly, provide them with a brave space to talk and meet other supportive allies.
