What is INTO Oregon State University?

INTO OSU continues a long tradition of more than 100 years of service to students from other countries at OSU. Academic preparation, English language training, admissions, recruiting and student services for international students at OSU are provided by a 50/50 partnership entity called INTO Oregon State University.

Founded in 2008, INTO OSU is an initiative to increase the number of and percentage ratio of international students at OSU and to improve the overall level of service that OSU provides for them. OSU leads and maintains full control of all academic and admissions decisions, while INTO contributes to market knowledge, leads student recruitment and contributes to the overall student experience.

Since its inception, the partnership has helped to more than double the OSU international student population, serving the university’s overall internationalization goals.
