Visiting Scholars Program Orientation
New Visiting Scholars orientation takes place by appointment, typically on Tuesdays or Thursdays at the UW School of Law or as otherwise arranged.
When paying your program and DS-2019 fees, please note that we strongly prefer credit card payments but will accept personal checks and money orders (exact amount) when pre-arranged. We do not access cash.
