As a visiting scholar, you are a valued member of our campus community.
Staff in International Student & Scholar Services (ISSS) will work to support you before you arrive and during your time here on campus. ISSS provides pre-arrival information, arrival and orientation services, immigration advice, and special programs specifically for international scholars.
We currently only sponsor J-1 scholars who are connected with one of our Partner Institutions. If you are interested in visiting Drake as a scholar or researcher, email isss@drake.edu for additional information
