The Student’s Perspective

Present your students with a tailored experience customized to your individual requirements and convey the unique style and culture of your institution. Students are presented with the information, forms, and instructions they need to see, when they need to see them. This simplifies and enhances their experience and helps them remain compliant with SEVP requirements.

Students can initiate requests directly from their student portal.  From updating an address to requesting OPT, ISSS Student empowers students while making advisors’ lives easier.

Configuring the Student Experience

Student Portal Configuration

The Student Portal Configuration makes configuration easy with an intuitive interface for administrators to create custom experiences for students specific to their visa-type and their stage in the Student Lifecycle. From the Invited Stage through the Archived Stage, information and instructions for students are set up in the Student Portal Configuration.  Many components can be conditional based on campus, educational level, visa type, program major, and country of citizenship.  All of this is accomplished with an intuitive, drag and drop interface.

Request Configurations

Request Configurations allow ISSS Admins to create and configure all of the requests that students can complete in the various stages of the Student Lifecycle. A Request is an action process that can be initiated by both the student and the ISSS Admin to update information, apply for OPT/CPT, or provide any additional information to the ISSS office. Requests can also come in from updates from your integrated SIS.
