Reporting to the Director of Global Education with a dotted line to the URLA Dean of Students and Success, the International Student Advisor is responsible for designing and delivering services and programs that facilitate the educational, professional, and personal success of international students at the University of Redlands campuses. While based at the LA campus, this role maintains a university-wide scope, serving as a front-line advisor for undergraduate and graduate international students. The ISA works in a highly collaborative environment, partnering closely with the Associate Director of International Student and Scholar Success, the Associate Director of International Admissions, the URLA Dean of Students and Success, and the Program Manager for Study Away and Exchange Programs to ensure a seamless "onboarding-to-graduation" experience. This role is specifically tasked with strengthening support structures for international students within the University of Redlands campuses, bridging the gap in currently decentralized services.

Key Responsibilities:

• Develop and update comprehensive informational materials (digital and print) to guide students through complex regulatory and campus processes.
• Collaborate with the Associate Director of International Admissions to ensure a smooth hand-off from the prospect/applicant stage to enrolled student status.

Compliance & SEVP Regulation Management

  Department of Homeland Security and Department of State.
•  Support the SEVIS-related compliance workflow in coordination with the Associate Director of International Student and Scholar Success to ensure university-wide data integrity and a streamlined process on admission, retention and graduation.
• Stay current on federal regulations and "best practices" to mitigate risk and ensure the University remains in good standing with federal agencies.

International Student Onboarding & Transition

• Co-coordinate with the Associate Director of International Student and Scholar Success and the URLA Dean of Students and Success, programming such as
  International Student Orientation and International/Out-of-State Welcome Week activities, ensuring students at the LA and Redlands campuses feel prepared
  for academic life.
• Work across departments (Registrar, Student Affairs, Student Success, and Student Finance) to streamline the admission and enrollment process, removing barriers for newly arriving international students/scholars.
• Serve as advisor to international student organizations and provide programs, events, and engagement opportunities to build community among international students.
• Coach student employees and Global Peer Mentors (GPMs) to provide peer-to-peer mentorship during the transition period.

International Student Belonging, Persistence & Success

• Co-facilitate initiatives that bolster retention and persistence by strengthening support structures for both undergraduate and graduate international students.
• Develop campus-wide programming to promote cultural integration, sensitivity, and global awareness within the University community.
• Actively partner with the Associate Director of International Student and Scholar Success and the URLA Dean of Students and Success to identify students facing barriers and implement intervention strategies that support academic and social belonging.

Global Opportunities & Study Away Integration

• Serve as a conduit for global mobility; stay informed on all university Study Away opportunities to provide general information to interested students.
• Identify and direct interest from students, staff, and faculty regarding outbound programs to the Program Manager, Study Away and Exchange Programs (based in Redlands).
