For OI Academic Institutions, our specialty is connection. We do not simply find students for schools, but, rather, we represent our partners abroad, establish offices and staff, and market the institution as they would themselves. For US universities, colleges, and high schools, we not only assist in the international recruiting process, but also provide international student services. In this way we assume the expensive responsibility of aiding and assisting international students throughout their academic career and assist these institutions develop and coordinate study abroad trips for their current student body. Lastly, we work with many institutions on both sides of the Pacific to build partnerships to facilitate the establishment of student and teacher exchanges, international transfer programs, camps and events, and resource sharing.
