All IS majors receive individual advising from the Program Director each semester prior to registration and as opportunities develop for participation in study abroad, national seminars, fellowships and scholarships.

International Studies Majors are eligible for fellowships administered by the Program to support study abroad.

The Model United Nations Program is popular among IS majors who constitute the majority of its participants; students also participate in other Model United Nations simulations.

The Students Association of International Studies (SAIS), run by students in the Program (but open to non-majors as well), organizes guest lectures, international crisis simulations, cultural fairs, publishes a blog and other social media resources, and offers opportunities for leadership among students.

Students also participate in other IS-affiliated clubs, including the Model United Nations Club and the United Nations Association Club, as well as in the CCNY-NGO UNDPI, in which City College students serve as youth representatives to international NGOs.

International Studies majors also benefit from the experience of CCNY’s Diplomat-in-Residence, who advises students on U.S. State Department internships and entry to the U.S. Foreign Service.
