Fuller Seminary recognizes the importance of pastoral care for its students. The pastoral care team works to identify and meet pastoral needs of Fuller Seminary’s  students. They are there to listen to you and pray for you. The Office Pastoral Care Team is located on the Second floor of the Catalyst Building, in the south campus. You may make an appointment to meet a pastoral care team member by calling or e-mailing Allison Ash at (626) 584-5435 or oss-office@dept.fuller.edu.

International Students Concerns Committee

The International Students Concerns Committee is a special-interest group sponsored by the All Seminary Council. The International Students Concerns Committee seeks to promote a sense of identity among international students to assist them in their adjustment to life at Fuller, and to serve as a facilitator of fellowship among international students and a bridge with the North American students to build a supportive community together.

The ISO is planning to do one workshop per quarter dedicated to the needs of Fuller’s international community.  Topics such as taxes, re-entry, employment, visas, immigration regulations, and cultural adjustment will be covered.  If you have any suggestions or questions concerning these events please contact Sam Bang at iso-office@dept.fuller.edu.

ESL Program

Fuller’s ESL Program has equipped hundreds of international students with the skills and confidence to start their seminary education in English.  Unlike traditional ESL classes, Fuller’s ESL curriculum trains you in the master’s-level, theological English necessary to function at seminary. Intermediate and Advanced levels give students realistic practice and strategies to overcome the challenges of studying in a foreign culture and language.  For more information about Fuller's ESL Program visit their website by clicking on the following link: Fuller ESL Program.
