There is no easy way to define an international student group. However, if you look at the statistics reported by UGA you will discover that international students may be one of very few, or sometimes the only person, from their home country. Some of those people join together based on the region they are from creating, for example, the European or African student groups. We also must face the fact that, in this truly global world in which we live, Americans are just as international as a student from any other country - especially if they have studied abroad, or were born or lived overseas, or have many friends from other countries. Advice ISL gives to groups To summarise the advising we provide our student groups is also difficult.
Every group renews their organization annually.
We offer leadership retreats and training workshops throughout the year. We help students develop and manage their programs and fundraising activities. We allocate funds, with the support of World Ambassadors, to each student organization. We facilitate the processing of reimbursements to our students. We advise the World Ambassador Program.
