Note for International Students and Scholars

Many international students and scholars find it helpful to choose a bank who has an ATM (Automatic Teller Machine) on-campus. During orientation every Fall/Spring semester many banks come to campus to speak about special accounts for new students. Generally international students and scholars move money from a home country bank to their new account here in the US through a wire transfer process they find out about through their new bank.
