"Global" and "international" are not slogans at UCLA; they are concepts which are fully integrated into our daily lives. The Dashew Center is where it all comes together. We enhance the UCLA experience for international students and scholars with programs and services, we assist UCLA academic departments with employment-based visa services and we serve as a resource and learning center for the entire UCLA community to promote global connection, international understanding and cultural sensitivity.

We are engaged passionately and enthusiastically with this important work. Our Mission Statement captures the essence of who we are and what we do. As members of the UCLA Student Affairs organization, we proudly welcome you to visit us and join us in fostering global connections!
