The purpose of the new International Office at Antioch University Santa Barbara is to serve the mission of the University in its desire to equip its students with the knowledge, skills, creativity and critical thinking to act responsibly and part-take in the development of a human society of an interconnected world that is sustainable and socially just.

Antioch University supports cross-cultural awareness, sensitivity, and skills that promote unity and the integration of diversity, and encourages students and faculty to think and act both locally and globally. Our goal is to develop students’ skills to prepare them for their roles as global citizens, enhance their understanding of world affairs, and develop their sense of social and civic responsibility around the world.

Antioch University welcomes international students of diverse backgrounds to our community in the belief that our respectful interaction advances the discovery of truth and mutual understanding.

Antioch is open to innovative programs and entrepreneurial ideas that will more effectively serve the educational needs of its international students. We are committed to developing programs that offer international students an integrated curriculum centered around a global perspective and with a strong emphasis on social justice and community service.

If you have any questions at all, please email me, the Director of International Programs, Dr. Esther López-Mulnix. I am here to help!

Sincerely,

Esther E. López-Mulnix, Ph.D.
