Everyone talks about their childhood friends,
but nobody talks about the ones you make in a new city,
the ones who made this new place feel like home far from home!

The International Student Association (ISA) at SDSU is dedicated to promoting international understanding and cultural awareness on campus and throughout the San Diego community. We achieve this by organizing social programs that create a supportive and welcoming network of globally-minded students and faculty from the U.S. and abroad. Through engaging events and initiatives, we aim to foster international goodwill and enrich the experiences of our diverse student body, particularly those with a passion for global issues. Additionally, ISA advocates for the interests of international students within the Associated Students Council, SDSU's student government.
