This massive initiative saw collaboration between several key departments, including the Office of the Dean of Students, the International office, the Counseling and Guidance Centre, the Office of the Academic Registrar, and the university library.
The partnership among these offices ensured that international students received comprehensive guidance on academic procedures, personal support, and essential resources. The Office of the Dean of Students provided oversight and organized key orientation activities, while the Counseling and Guidance Centre offered crucial support services to help students adjust to their new environment. The Office of the Academic Registrar facilitated smooth navigation of academic registration and regulations, and the library staff introduced students to essential research resources and study spaces.
