WEEK THREE: DONE & DUSTED

Now that Week Three is behind us, let's take a look at what is coming up in Week Four. One of the biggest events in the Campus Calendar is on the horizon: the Career Conference. No matter what year you are in, this is a great opportunity to explore opportunities for internships/co-ops and, for those of you nearing degree completion: professional jobs. Even if you are not looking at something for the short-term, you can gain valuable experience by taking part. 

I am also still waiting on some people to complete their Check-In Forms. If you are one of those people, please complete the form!

FALL 2020 VIRTUAL CAREER CONFERENCE

The Fall 2020 Career Conference is going VIRTUAL but it still providing employers an opportunity to connect with students, faculty and staff to promote job opportunities and discuss career options. Each day of the conference is targeted to specific majors/industries.

Don't miss out on the opporunity to take advantage of this great opportunity!

COMPLETE THE OIE CHECK-IN

The terms of your F-1 visa require you be "registered" in SEVIS each semester. The OIE has a limited amount of time to do this so it is important that you follow through with the check-in process as swiftly as possible. Failure to complete this process could result in you failing to maintain your F-1 status. 
Who needs to complete the Check-In Form:

1. All F-1 UW-Stout students
