ABOUT US

Northern Michigan University's International Programs Office is here to help facilitate global experiences for both incoming international students and outbound domestic students.

International Admissions and all things related to Immigration are done in our office. We work with International students throughout the application process, during their time here at Northern, and post-graduation while on OPT.

We also work closely with current Northern students who are interested in studying abroad. We work with students from the initial stages of the study abroad experience and support them throughout their time abroad. This includes both individual study abroad experiences as well as faculty-let study abroad experiences.  

Whether you’re a future student, a current student, a faculty or staff member, alumnus or community leader, we can help you explore the world.
