International students are a vital part of campus life at the University of North Alabama. International Student Services (ISS) is dedicated to supporting these students from the moment they arrive, offering guidance on everything from immigration paperwork to understanding university resources. ISS is here to ensure students feel supported and connected throughout their time at UNA.
