MyBruin International Portal 

For DGSOM Departments and Affiliates

MyBruin International Portal   

We are introducing a new centralized system called MyBruin International Portal. This means that all J-1 related requests and documents will be provided in one place. The portal will provide users an enhanced user-experience and transparency. It will also improve data security and system stability, as well as advanced functionality for UCLA to meet federal compliance requirements more efficiently. We are looking forward to implementing this new system because it will enable UCLA to better serve international students, scholars, and department administrators through this robust and comprehensive system.

More Details

What will change?

  • The look and feel of the new portal will be different from how scholars currently request documents & forms.
  • It will provide a more friendly & transparent user-experience for submission of requests to DGSOM’s Visa and Licensing Office.
  • By default, DS-2019s will be issued to international scholars electronically via the portal once a request is processed by the DGSOM Visa and Licensing Office. As a result, the Visa and Licensing Office will no longer need international scholars to provide a mailing option within most requests.
  • Most online PDF forms that the Visa and Licensing Office is currently using for J-1 international scholars requests will be replaced by an electronic submission through MyBruin International Portal.

    What will not change?

  • Academic departments will still need to review J-1 scholars requests electronically before they are submitted to the Visa and Licensing Office for processing.
  • The required information and documentation for most requests will remain the same.
