To reward student clubs that actively include international students in its membership and activities and to encourage other clubs to follow suit, ISSS operates a club certification program: Certified by the International Office. Each semester, ISSS selects clubs that make feasible efforts towards inclusivity and cultural exchange by welcoming international students as its members and organizing activities that can be enjoyed by all. Selected clubs are given the opportunity to introduce themselves during New Student Orientation to attract more members at the beginning of the semester, and also receive monetary prizes.
Student Organizations
There are several student organizations that support the international student body.
