FAQs

International student services should be audited at least annually, with more frequent reviews recommended during peak admission periods or when significant changes occur in international education policies.

The audit team should include international student advisors, admissions officers, academic support staff, cultural liaison officers, legal compliance specialists, and representatives from the international student body to ensure a comprehensive evaluation.

The checklist covers areas such as pre-arrival information and support, orientation programs, visa and immigration assistance, academic advising for international students, cultural integration activities, language support services, and international alumni engagement.

By systematically reviewing international student support processes, the checklist helps identify service gaps, cultural misunderstandings, compliance issues, and opportunities for enhancing the overall international student experience and academic success.

Outcomes may include improved orientation programs, enhanced visa support processes, more effective cultural integration initiatives, better academic support tailored to international students, and recommendations for service improvements to meet ISO 9001 standards and international student needs.
