Purpose
The International Services Office (ISO) is the first stop for the GW international
community and will help eliminate challenges when studying in the U.S. ISO Advisors
host a variety of special events that highlight our international community.
Services
Advising: Expert advisors are here to answer students’ questions related to their
immigration status and to address any other concerns related to academic, personal
or cultural adjustment as an international student. Advising services include one-onone appointments with a student’s dedicated advisor, weekly drop-in advising hours or
support via email.
Events & Programming: The ISO is committed to enriching the student life experience
and hosts a wide variety of events each academic year. Programming is intentionally built
around four support areas: orientation and adjustment, career and professional support,
immigration support, and social and cultural exchange.
Peer Support: The International Student Community Ambassadors (ISCAs) supplement
the acculturation, engagement and professional/career services provided by the ISO
and GW Center for Career Services. The ISCAs serve as peer mentors, review resumes
and cover letters, and organize professional workshops and social events for all GW
international students.
