Appointments & Advising

The CSU Center for Global Engagement provides advising to students via email and scheduled appointments. It is recommended that for any inquiries, you first send an email to international@columbusstate.edu. Your issue may be resolved without an appointment. If your need requires a letter from CGE we can prepare it and have it ready for you to pick up if you e-mail first. Walk In's may have to return to pick up documents.

Issues that will require an in person appointment:

• Change of immigration status (ex. F-1 to other status or vice-versa)
• Personal issues and cultural adjustment difficulties
• Any situation where you believe more information or personal assistance is needed (ex. Medical/Compassionate Withdrawal, Leave of Absence)
• OPT or CPT employment - please have required documentation completed before making an appointment
• Any violation of status
• Transfer to another university
