International Visiting 研究 Scholar Program

International Student & 学者服务 (ISSS) supports academic departments in hosting and welcoming experienced scholars from around the world as visiting scholars. Prospective professors and researchers must be invited by an academic department or college, who will serve as your host. Visiting scholars (also known as Exchange Visitors) are participants in Bridge美国, a program regulated and operated by the U.S. Department of State. A variety of regulations must be followed by 萨克拉门托 State, the Exchange Visitor, and their dependents to participate in the program. This page described the policies and procedures for requesting J-1 status as a visiting scholar at 萨克拉门托 State.

Procedures and Forms

Prospective faculty hosts and Exchange Visitors should read the following documents for detailed information about the program:
