International Student Community Ambassadors
The International Student Community Ambassadors (ISCAs) serve the entire GW international student population, by supplementing the acculturation, engagement, and professional career services provided by the International Services Office (ISO) and GW Center for Career Services. The ISCAs serve as peer mentors, review resumes and cover letters, and organize professional workshops and social events. ISCAs provide the following services to ALL GW international students and scholars:
- Serve as peer mentors to the international student population by helping students adjust to life at GW and take advantage of international student resources.
- Review resumes and cover letters, provide advice on interviewing and networking tips, and direct international students to career resources and useful job and internship search resources.
- Organize social, cultural, and professional events and workshops tailored to international student needs.
