• The International Students’ Association (ISA) is a student body that represents the specific interests of the increasing number of international students at York. All international students, undergraduate and postgraduate (including students from the EU), are automatically members of the ISA, which is jointly financed by YUSU and the GSA.
• The ISA has three aims. Firstly, it aims to address the problems – personal, social or administrative – which might be faced by international students at York. Secondly, and more positively, it opens up opportunities for cultural exchange by organising social events, especially during the annual ‘International Week’ which culminates in Fiesta, a cultural and culinary tour of the world. Thirdly, the ISA arranges trips around Britain and Europe to enable international students to learn more about their hosting nation. We hope to promote representation, integration, and a celebration of the diversity represented at York.
• The ISA Executive Committee is responsible for running the Association, and the Association is represented on a number of University committees. The ISA holds open meetings which all students are welcome to attend. You are encouraged to get involved with the running of the ISA, either as a member of the Executive Committee or in a more informal way.
• The ISA office is located in the first floor of Wentworth College, in the same place as the GSA office.
