Via International is built for ISSS offices at institutions of any size that support F, M (coming soon), and J students and scholars. Whether you’re a one-person team or a large international office, Via helps you streamline SEVIS compliance, reduce administrative risk, and deliver a clear, modern experience for students and scholars. Many campuses also use Via International to coordinate with HR and academic departments through role-based dashboards, so partners can submit requests, track status, and share responsibility for compliance—without creating more email chains.

Via International is designed to fit into your existing campus ecosystem. We integrate with leading Student Information Systems—for example, Ellucian Banner, PeopleSoft, and Workday Student—and support SAML 2.0 Single Sign-On (SSO) so students, scholars, and staff use their institutional credentials securely.
We also connect directly to SEVIS for both RTI and Batch (with unified workflows inside Via), and support APIs and SFTP for additional data exchange. If your team needs to bring in data from HR or departmental systems, we can align data mapping and reconciliation to keep records accurate and reduce duplicate entry. For the full list, see our Integrations page.

Because regulatory alignment matters, our onboarding balances momentum with compliance precision. Most institutions implement Via International in 6-9 months. You’ll work with a dedicated Success Partner through a phased plan that typically includes:

• Configuration & Data Quality: Set up program types, requests, forms/fields, and validations; map data and address de-duplication.
  
  
• SEVIS Alignment: Define RTI/Batch workflows, event triggers, and reconciliation steps; confirm audit trails.
  
  
• Integrations & Access: Connect SIS/SSO, establish roles/permissions for ISSS and campus partners.
  
  
• Training & Change Management: Modular live training, 1:1 working sessions, plus Via Academy on-demand resources and live webinars.

This approach ensures your team launches with clean data, clear workflows, and confidence—and avoids rushed setups that can create record issues later.

We use a clear, transparent pricing model based on approved records—no bands, per-request fees, or hidden add-ons. That means predictable budgeting as your caseload changes. Depending on your needs, you can add setup and integration services (for data migrations, custom mapping, or complex SIS/HR connections) to accelerate a smooth launch. Our team will scope the right level of support during discovery so you only pay for what you need.

Via International supports SEVIS RTI and Batch for J-1 students and scholars, with F and M categories coming soon—all within a single, cloud-based system. That unified approach means your team can issue I-20s/DS-2019s, trigger events, reconcile records, and audit changes in one place, with built-in validations that help minimize errors and reduce SEVIS rejections.
