International Student Council

What is ISC
ISC

The International Student Council strives to increase International student involvement within the University of Central Oklahoma community, to build a dialog for cross cultural communication, to involve international students in campus activities, to encourage an understanding of the democratic process, to develop a strong voice for international student concerns, and to develop internship and scholarship opportunities for international students.

The International Student Council shall address and promote the issues and needs that concern international students and represent them in committees (if any) in the university.

The International Student Council shall work collectively to be involved in campus wide activities. This involvement serves to promote the identity of the International Student Council.

The International Student Council shall support any student or organization within the University of Central Oklahoma as far as resources permit.

The International Student Council holds meetings on Mondays from 4pm to 5pm throughout the semester. We meet at the Nigh University Center, Room 300 or Room 301.
