International Student Advisory Board 2023-24

About Board Members
Members of the International Student Advisory Board (ISAB) help build a bridge between international students and International Student Services at UW-Madison. Members of the board bring valuable insight from their own experience. They also learn about their international student peers and share insight and stories with ISS as we work together to build a more globally engaged environment.
