International Student Services (ISS) strives to academically and socially support international students as they adjust to their new lives at Otis. ISS provides advice, helps with English language skills, workshops, and offers support to international students as they find their unique voices. Otis fosters respect for cultural diversity, and students are encouraged to become an active part of the community. We are dedicated to helping students reach their fullest potential for success.

Students with questions regarding their visa status should contact Juan Venegas, (310) 665-6953, Designated School Official in the Registration Office on the second floor of the Ahmanson building. Students with questions concerning Center for Creative Professions should contact Denise Gianoussopoulos at (310) 665-6962.

To assist our international student body with the transition to Otis, ISS suggests reading the International Student Survival Guide.
