Advocacy around ESL needs and academic advising Tweak the timing of workshops Greater collaboration with service units such as Career Center, CalSo, etc Source: University of California / Berkeley International Office (BIO ) Implications for Service Provision

More information about how to use SHIP. More social programs to overcome isolation particularly for those who live off-campus. Seek ways to tweak our identity/brand with students so that they see us not just as a visa office or a office that they had to visit but one that will help them navigate through difficult challenges.
