We can help you with:

  • Pre-arrival guidance and resources.
  • Removing holds on your CMU account.
  • Providing community resources.
  • Completing orientation requirements.

In addition to personalized support, the Welcome Center is a great place to relax, study and connect with other students. Each semester the Welcome Center hosts international student events and activities – giving you the chance to build community and feel at home at CMU.

We look forward to welcoming you to the CMU community!
