I am an international student and will not be coming to the U.S. until just before orientation starts. I am unable to set up direct deposit and upload a copy of my social security number (SSN) until I arrive.

We understand that international students may not be able to complete certain tasks until after arriving in the U.S. To accommodate this, we can extend the due date to 3 days after the start of orientation, providing additional time for you to complete these tasks. Please send a brief email to gsbsstudentsuccess@umassmed.edu to inform us, so we can update the due date and pause any overdue notifications.
