OISE International Students
OISE International Students’ Association (ISA)
OISE’s International Students’ Association (ISA) organizes a reception at the beginning of each year for international students to meet and get to know each other. The ISA works jointly with other organizations to serve international students interests and represents international students on committees and councils established at OISE. The ISA represents the international students’ perspective on issues, concerns and problems that require a collective solution and looks into the specific needs of the international students. The ISA is also represented on the GSA General Council.
The ISA has put together an A-Z Information Tool Kit for new international students at OISE. It has lots of good information and advice from accommodations, banking, and groceries to thesis binding and work study positions.
