PASSPORT PROGRAM

Preparing and Assisting Students and Scholars at Pitt through Orientation, Resources, and Training (PASSPORT) is a program series for international students and scholars. PASSPORT is designed to help you succeed in your personal and professional goals as you face the unique challenges of managing life in the United States and at the University of Pittsburgh.

Each session will enable you to interact with staff members from the Office of International Services (OIS), representatives from a variety of other University offices, and experienced international students and scholars. Complimentary refreshments will be provided at each session. Below is the schedule for the 2007-2008 Academic Year. Internationals who complete at least eight of the ten PASSPORT session surveys will be entered into a drawing for a prize of $100 in Panther Funds or a gift certificate to The Book Center.
