Who says north is up? The world, like a ball, has no top. Top is a matter of habit, convention, and emphasis. Our lives are enriched when we see things from a different point of view.
The Office of International Student Affairs (OISA) is dedicated to international student and scholar success. We report to Student Affairs and we are co-located with the Institute for Global Engagement (IGE) on the first floor of the Humanities and Social Sciences Center (HSSC).
OISA helps international students and exchange visitors navigate life and learning in 51²è¹İapp, Iowa, USA. We offer ongoing regulatory advice, cultural programming, and academic and social support and referrals. We facilitate institutional compliance with the Student and Exchange Visitor Program (SEVP), and we collaborate with campus partners to help 51²è¹İapp College support and serve a global student body.
This map plots the passport countries of currently enrolled international students, which spans over 60 countries. For more information about the make-up of our student body, please check out 51²è¹İapp's Gallery of Flags which hangs above the Spencer Grill in the Joe Rosenfield ’25 Center.
