The mission of the First Year Student Network is to assist first-year and transfer students from underrepresented racial, ethnic, and cultural groups from the United States and International locations in their transition to Messiah College. "The Net" offers the resources that are needed as students adjust to the spiritual, educational, and social environment of Messiah College.

The International Student Programs, under the umbrella of the Office of Multicultural Programs, provides international students and students who are the children of missionaries and other professionals living abroad with the tools to succeed during their college experience at Messiah College. Programming throughout the year is provided to help in the adaptation to the American educational experience and to celebrate international culture. In collaboration with the Admissions office, we provide assistance with visas and employment. We also offer a Friendship Family Program allowing students to build connections with the local community.
