What is ISI?

International Students, Inc. (ISI) is a 50+ year-old organization of Christians who want to share friendship with international students at U.S. colleges and universities. ISI volunteers and staff help students with such things as learning about American culture, problems needing a native speaker, finding an American Christian mentor in their academic discipline, and if interested, learning about our Creator God and the Bible.

While ISI is a Christian organization, students need not be Christians to participate. Those from any nationality and all religious backgrounds are welcome and encouraged to participate. ISI offers social services and spiritual activities. It is not necessary to participate in spiritual activities in order to receive other services. Our services and friendship are offered unconditionally and students will not be pressured regarding participation in spiritual activities.

ISI is headquartered in Colorado Springs, Colorado, and has field staff in more than 130 cities across the U.S., serving more than 320 campuses. In addition, more than 14,000 volunteers assist to serve international students throughout the U.S.
