KU Resources


Study Abroad & Global Engagement

Study Abroad & Global Engagement will be your host during your time at KU.  Charlie Ambrose is the incoming exchange student coordinator so she will communicate with you throughout the application process, prior to your arrival, and during your time on campus.  You will meet with Charlie or another coordinator in Study Abroad & Global Engagement to enroll in your classes after completing orientation.  You are welcome to stop by the main office, in 108 Lippincott, at any time with questions or concerns. 

International Student Services (ISS)

International Student Services (ISS) provides an experienced immigration advising staff to help answer questions and process paperwork for maintaining legal student immigration status.  It also provides a wide range of services and programs to help international students adjust to cultural life at KU. From the week-long “You at KU” orientation program to ongoing programs to academic support for success, ISS is here to help international students have a rewarding and fulfilling experience while at KU. 

Department of Student Housing

The majority of exchange students opt to live in on-campus residence halls or apartments.  Once admitted to KU, you will receive an acceptance email with details about how to contract for on-campus housing.  Explore housing options on KU Student Housing Website. For questions related to on-campus housing, please email housing@ku.edu

Student Access Services

Student Access Services, part of the University Academic Support Centers, works with all units at the University to insure that every student has an equal opportunity to succeed at KU. They are here to provide services for students with disabilities whether physical, medical, sensory, psychological, or related to attention or learning.

Conveniently located on campus, Watkins Memorial Health Center offers a comprehensive range of medical services for students including general medicine, walk-in, and women’s health clinics and an on-site pharmacy.  Counseling & Psychological Services is located in the same building and is a resource for students struggling with adjustment issues and other psychological, interpersonal, and family problems.
