iTriton Online Training

This page has a friendly link that's easy to remember: itriton.ucsd.edu

To help guide you through the adventure ahead, we have created an online training that will map out your journey as an international student here at UC San Diego. iTriton has been designed to provide you with information you should know before starting your program of study. This canvas course consists of several modules that cover topics such as preparing for your arrival to the U.S., working, settling in San Diego, and more! Pay close attention as these modules demonstrate some of the top issues international students face with their immigration status.   

Newly admitted international students are required to complete the iTriton Online Training before their first quarter at UC San Diego. 

All new students starting their programs in Winter 2025 must complete this REQUIRED orientation BEFORE their arrival or by January 2, 2024 (whichever is earlier).
