Your American Education Starts Here

Franklin University’s Office of International Students and Programs (OISP) supports non-immigrant students in the United States, online international students, and students who take part in one of our programs in cooperation with our partners abroad to achieve their academic and professional goals. OISP helps students during the admissions process and provides immigration advice during their programs and beyond.

Why Franklin?

International students at Franklin University are exposed to a unique perspective on U.S. culture and daily life. The majority of our American students work full-time while attending Franklin, and most classes are in accelerated formats that meet at night to fit busy schedules. Your classmates will be just starting their careers or professionals seeking advancement, and your instructors will focus on real-world application of course content.
