You may arrive in the U.S. up to 30 days before the start date shown on your I-20\/DS-2019 form; however, you should not arrive later than the date listed. Submit your arrival details to OIP at umaine.edu\/international\/admitted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Luggage<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Do not send luggage in advance of your arrival. The university does not have adequate storage. Attach tags or labels on all suitcases and hand luggage, with your name and OIP address: 122 Chadbourne Hall, Orono, ME 04469; phone: 207.581.3437. Include a copy of the address inside each suitcase in case the tag is lost or destroyed. If a piece of luggage is lost, immediately file a claim at the airport. Temporary loss of luggage is common, especially when making connecting flights in a short period of time. It is recommended to have enough clothing and personal items packed in your carry-on luggage to last for two to three days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Travel documents<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n<style>.wp-block-kadence-iconlist.kt-svg-icon-list-items23053_7739bd-cf:not(.this-stops-third-party-issues){margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;}.wp-block-kadence-iconlist.kt-svg-icon-list-items23053_7739bd-cf ul.kt-svg-icon-list:not(.this-prevents-issues):not(.this-stops-third-party-issues):not(.tijsloc){margin-top:0px;margin-right:0px;margin-bottom:10px;margin-left:0px;}.wp-block-kadence-iconlist.kt-svg-icon-list-items23053_7739bd-cf ul.kt-svg-icon-list{grid-row-gap:5px;}.wp-block-kadence-iconlist.kt-svg-icon-list-items23053_7739bd-cf ul.kt-svg-icon-list .kt-svg-icon-list-item-wrap .kt-svg-icon-list-single{margin-right:10px;}<\/style>\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-iconlist kt-svg-icon-list-items kt-svg-icon-list-items23053_7739bd-cf kt-svg-icon-list-columns-1 alignnone kt-list-icon-aligntop\"><ul class=\"kt-svg-icon-list\"><style>.kt-svg-icon-list-item-23053_679bfd-b9 .kt-svg-icon-list-single{font-size:20px !important;}.kt-svg-icon-list-item-23053_679bfd-b9 .kt-svg-icon-list-text mark.kt-highlight{background-color:unset;font-style:normal;color:#f76a0c;-webkit-box-decoration-break:clone;box-decoration-break:clone;padding-top:0px;padding-right:0px;padding-bottom:0px;padding-left:0px;}<\/style>\n<li class=\"wp-block-kadence-listitem kt-svg-icon-list-item-wrap kt-svg-icon-list-item-23053_679bfd-b9 kt-svg-icon-list-style-default\"><span class=\"kb-svg-icon-wrap kb-svg-icon-fe_circle kt-svg-icon-list-single\"><svg viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\"  fill=\"none\" stroke=\"currentColor\" stroke-width=\"2\" stroke-linecap=\"round\" stroke-linejoin=\"round\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"  aria-hidden=\"true\"><circle cx=\"12\" cy=\"12\" r=\"10\"\/><\/svg><\/span><span class=\"kt-svg-icon-list-text\">Your passport must be valid for at least six months, with the appropriate visa.<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n<style>.kt-svg-icon-list-item-23053_39bb7e-4f .kt-svg-icon-list-single{font-size:20px !important;}.kt-svg-icon-list-item-23053_39bb7e-4f .kt-svg-icon-list-text mark.kt-highlight{background-color:unset;font-style:normal;color:#f76a0c;-webkit-box-decoration-break:clone;box-decoration-break:clone;padding-top:0px;padding-right:0px;padding-bottom:0px;padding-left:0px;}<\/style>\n<li class=\"wp-block-kadence-listitem kt-svg-icon-list-item-wrap kt-svg-icon-list-item-23053_39bb7e-4f kt-svg-icon-list-style-default\"><span class=\"kb-svg-icon-wrap kb-svg-icon-fe_circle kt-svg-icon-list-single\"><svg viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\"  fill=\"none\" stroke=\"currentColor\" stroke-width=\"2\" stroke-linecap=\"round\" stroke-linejoin=\"round\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"  aria-hidden=\"true\"><circle cx=\"12\" cy=\"12\" r=\"10\"\/><\/svg><\/span><span class=\"kt-svg-icon-list-text\">You must carry your printed I-20\/DS-2019 form issued by UMaine. <\/span><\/li>\n\n\n<style>.kt-svg-icon-list-item-23053_36b419-7d .kt-svg-icon-list-single{font-size:20px !important;}.kt-svg-icon-list-item-23053_36b419-7d .kt-svg-icon-list-text mark.kt-highlight{background-color:unset;font-style:normal;color:#f76a0c;-webkit-box-decoration-break:clone;box-decoration-break:clone;padding-top:0px;padding-right:0px;padding-bottom:0px;padding-left:0px;}<\/style>\n<li class=\"wp-block-kadence-listitem kt-svg-icon-list-item-wrap kt-svg-icon-list-item-23053_36b419-7d kt-svg-icon-list-style-default\"><span class=\"kb-svg-icon-wrap kb-svg-icon-fe_circle kt-svg-icon-list-single\"><svg viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\"  fill=\"none\" stroke=\"currentColor\" stroke-width=\"2\" stroke-linecap=\"round\" stroke-linejoin=\"round\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"  aria-hidden=\"true\"><circle cx=\"12\" cy=\"12\" r=\"10\"\/><\/svg><\/span><span class=\"kt-svg-icon-list-text\">Border control agents will create your electronic (I-94) admission document.
