Nov. 8 through Nov. 12: IE will be partially closed to implement the new ctcLink system. IE’s main telephone and IE email will be checked daily, but there will be no appointments with staff during the week. You can still email your International Student Advisor with questions but understand that you may not get a response until the following week. We appreciate your patience and understanding.
Beginning Nov. 22 through Dec. 31, IE will increase “on-campus” services from Monday through Thursday. During these new expanded hours on-campus, you can make an appointment to see an advisor or other staff or walk-in with questions.
Fridays will remain closed for ongoing ctcLink training until Dec. 31. We will be monitoring our e-mail and voicemail for emergencies only.
Starting on November 8, foreign national air travelers to the United States will be required to be fully vaccinated and to provide proof of vaccination status prior to boarding an airplane to fly to the United States, with only limited exceptions.
The CDC has determined that for the purposes of entry into the United States, accepted vaccines will include those approved by the FDA, as well as vaccines with an emergency use listing (EUL) from the World Health Organization (WHO). See the State Department’s FAQs and CDC’s FAQs for more details.
To protect the health and safety of the Bellevue College campus community and the public, the College requires all faculty, staff and students to be fully vaccinated against COVID-19 with an authorized vaccine unless an individual receives an authorized exemption.
All online and in-person students must complete the vaccination attestation (confirmation) or request an exemption.
