Pine Manor College offers international students several resources in
both academic and non-academic areas.
Campus Resources

Affairs
- The International Affairs segment of the MISA (Multicultural, International,
Spiritual Affairs) office focuses on providing guidance and regulatory
advising to International Students in maintaining their F-1 Student

with various on-campus departments to ensure that students are fully
aware of their responsibilities and options while living and studying

has the academic, cultural, and social support needed to make their
time in the community a successful and positive one.
- International
Student Club (ISC)
- The ISC at Pine Manor College is a group of international students
including American students. The International Club is a fun place
to be in and all members have had very nice experiences in the past
semester. The International Student Club also serves as a connection

United States. It introduces the current students to new students.
It is one of the many places to make friends with people from other
countries or even your own country.
