Topics may include:

• Laws related to alcohol, driving, and housing

• Interactions with law enforcement and what to expect

• Recent legal or policy changes relevant to international students

• Common legal misunderstandings or mistakes to avoid

Student Legal Services (SLS), a part of the Division of Student Life, will co-present this workshop. SLS strives to provide all University of Iowa students with access to the justice system. Since legal matters can be overwhelming, confidential on-campus legal advice and representation can help prevent an academic career from being derailed. Whether you’re a first-year student or a PhD candidate, an Iowa native or an international student, SLS is a resource for students from all backgrounds.

Life in Iowa is a program designed to assist international students in adjusting to life and the academic system here at the University of Iowa. It includes cultural events and academic sessions, as well as a career series.
