Ticket to Diversity is one of the events ISS has been working on to provide international students a platform to express their culture while being away from home and to savour many other cultures from around the world. Among many other events, Soccer Tournament is one the events which provide international students the occasion to enjoy their hobbies which most of them normally cannot because of lack opportunities and friends.

Overall, ISS is a platform which works to ensure that international students feel accepted and heard in the UNB community.

UNB INDIan student association

The Indian Student Association (ISA) is the community and social group of all the students who are from the resourceful country of India and of Indian origin. ISA at UNB has a long and interesting history. It was the first international student association in the University of New Brunswick. Born amidst controversies in 1962, ISA had to explain to the local community that the formation of the association was not for ethnic isolation but an expression of rich culture and heritage of India. The reason was later well accepted and supported by all. ISA was also the mother of another organization known as the South Asian Society which was formed in 1997. Any one who wishes to join the ISA are more than welcome, to know and enjoy the richness of India and its masses.
