International Student Success Task Force

 

International Student Success Task Force

The Office of Global Affairs and Division of Undergraduate Education have teamed up to create a task force on international student success.  Spurred by a recognition that this student population has unique needs, the International Student Success Task Force (ISSTF) is looking at ways to help international students transition to the U.S. educational system and better understand the social and academic culture at Stony Brook.

Consisting of representatives from key University administrative and academic units, the ISSTF is capturing and analyzing data on international students, as well as cataloguing the current landscape of services and support mechanisms.  With this data, the ISSTF plans to identify the major challenges international students face, assess the effectiveness of programs and services offered, and propose recommendations and innovative ideas to boost international student success.
