All new international students at UGA, including the School of Law, are required to check in with the Office of Global Engagement (OGE) by phone at 001-706-542-2900 or by email at immigration@uga.edu. F-1 and J-1 students in particular must be careful to check in with OGE in a timely fashion. Your student record cannot be registered with the government until you have completed the immigration check in process. In addition, you will not be able to register for classes until you check in with OGE.
