Welcome! We're glad you've found us and hope to have you join our growing international community. The number of international students at CIIS has grown steadily in recent years, with more than 95 students currently enrolled in our undergraduate and graduate programs.

International students make up more than 10 percent of CIIS's total student body. We currently have students representing more than 29 countries and six continents.

Jody O'Connor, the International Student Advisor at CIIS is here to assist with the admissions application process, obtaining a student visa, and preparing to study in the United States.

The International Student Advisor also serves as a resource for immigration regulations, ESL and academic writing workshops, and to help international students adjust to life in the U.S.
