About Us

Welcome to Seoul National University! To all international students joining us this semester, whether you are experiencing SNU for the first time or returning for another semester, I hope you find your time here exciting, meaningful, and full of new experiences. Starting or continuing university life in a different country can be both exciting and challenging, and SISA is here to make that experience a little easier and more enjoyable.  As SISA President this semester, one of my main goals is to create a community where international students feel comfortable, welcomed, and connected. Being far from home can sometimes make a new environment feel unfamiliar, so I hope SISA can provide a space where you can meet people, build friendships, and find a place that feels a little closer to home. Throughout the semester, we will be organizing various activities and events for our international student community. Our Welcoming Party, Care Package events, Halloween Party, Homecoming and End of the Year Party are all waiting for you! We want to create opportunities for you to connect with others while making great memories during your time at SNU. We hope to see many of you at our events!  SISA is an association under the Office of Global Affairs (OGA) at Seoul National University. The OGA offers various services and resources to support international students with matters such as visa extensions, part-time work permissions, and other administrative procedures. If you need assistance with these matters, you can contact the OGA at i-office@snu.ac.kr. They also organize their own events such as coffee break every Thursday from 4 to 5 and occasional cultural trips for international students, make sure to follow their communication channels to stay tuned and not miss these opportunities. To stay informed about SISA, make sure to follow us on Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn, and consider joining our Kakao Open Chatroom. We regularly share information about upcoming events, announcements, and resources that may be useful during your time at SNU. Most importantly, please remember that SISA is here for you. If you have a question, concern, suggestion, or simply need someone to point you in the right direction, feel free to contact us through our website, email us at info@snusisa.com, or send us a DM on Instagram. I hope this semester brings you new friendships, unforgettable experiences, and a strong sense of community. No matter where you come from, I hope SNU can become a place where you feel at home and I hope SISA can be a part of that journey. Welcome to the SNU international student community. I look forward to meeting you all and making this semester a memorable one together!  

Best,  Isaac Fernando Quiroz Morales
