About Us

 
 



The international community at MIT comprises 8.26% of the student body.

(For specific statistics refer to the International Students Office)

The International Student’s Association at MIT works for and with MIT’s international students, striving to promote cultural diversity on campus.

We are currently registered under the Graduate Student Council (GSC) but our activities are intended for the undergraduate community as well.

Although most of our members are international students, the ISA welcomes and encourages domestic students to join.
