The Center for International and Experiential Education , located in the Durham house, assists them in understanding immigration laws and procedures that may apply, ensuring that they arrive in the United States with the appropriate visa for their career at DePauw. Every staff member in the Durham House is available to answer questions and provide support to international students, faculty and staff.
