Although the Office of International Student Affairs (OISA) is one of the first offices to welcome international students to Emerson, you will find resources for international students across our Boston campus as well as in LA and Kasteel Well and our partner institutions.
We partner with many other offices to offer support for your academic success, campus engagement, and career-preparedness.
