UNR Department Administrators

You can use the form on this page in order to request the processing of new J-1 scholars. Please carefully read the following information:
  1. You will need to log into our International Student & Scholar Portal in order to create the request. There are multiple ways to log in.
    • You can create a new login using your email address
    • You can contact our office and have us enter your information into the system (this will allow you to login using your NetID)
    • If you have already created an account using your email address and would like to convert it to using your NetID we can also help you with that conversion.
      • Please contact our office at oiss@unr.edu if you would like us to change your login to your NetID (please do not contact our scholar advisors for this as they do not have access to change the login information for users).

    • IPO or check in US dollars payable to the Board of Regents for the $350 OISS processing fee
