The Office of International Programs provides services to both international students studying at North Central College and North Central students studying abroad.

Mission Statement

North Central College has made a firm commitment to ensuring that students, faculty, staff and the Naperville community develop knowledge and appreciation of cultural differences in both domestic and international settings. For students, an education at this institution includes a global dimension gained through proficiency-based language learning, course work, internships, person-to-person contacts, study abroad, and travel.

The Office of International Programs provides vision and guidance for developing and implementing international programs.
