Involvement Opportunities

International Students' Council
The ASWSU International Students’ Council offers leadership opportunities for both international and domestic students to become involved in student government at WSU. The International Students’ Council is the official voice of the international student population on campus and is intricately involved in the internationalization of the campus community through programs such as International Education Week.

International Peer Mentors are current WSU students who help facilitate orientation for the new international students and continue contact with their mentees throughout the semester.
