    About OGI

            The Office of Global Initiatives (OGI) was created in July 2006. Its mission is to promote, support and facilitate the development of international academic programs for students and faculty.

            Our Office of Study Abroad (OSA) is configured to work directly with students who wish to study/travel abroad for short and long term commitments. We are also poised to work with faculty to develop exchanges, arrange international teaching/travel assignments and identify collaborative research opportunities.

            The Office of International Student Services (OISS) component of OGI provides a variety of helpful service for the on campus international student ranging from transfer advice/assistance, immigration updates, travel planning, forms/approvals and travel advisories to employment, visa status services and helpful resources. The OISS coordinates all international student organizations as well.

            The American Language Institute (ALI) is committed to providing quality English language instruction for college-bound students, permanent residents, international businessmen and visitors. We assist potential graduate students in all majors who have not quite reached the English language requirement through the Graduate Academic Preparation Program.

     

    Mission Statement

            The Mission of the Office of Global Initiatives is to promote the academic and economic development of The University of Toledo through the establishment of higher education, medical and business linkages in selected regions of the world. In pursuit of this Mission, OGI will work in a collaborative manner with key partners in education, medical/health care, research and the community at-large. OGI will advance the objectives of The University of Toledo through global strategies and partnerships, thus serving the needs of the community.
