Welcome
Friends of India (FOI ) , the Indian Students Association at the University of Arkansas has been active for the past many years helping Indian Students and organizing many cultural Functions.
The Indian flag is a horizontal tricolour in equal proportion of deep saffron on the top, white in the middle and dark green at the bottom. In the centre of the white band, there is a wheel in navy blue to indicate the Dharma Chakra, the wheel of law in the Sarnath Lion Capital. This center symbol or the 'CHAKRA', is a Buddhist symbol dating back to 200th century BC.
About FOI
Friends of India is actively involved in helping the Office of ISS (International Students and Scholars) in organizing ‘pick-up & temporary accommodation’ arrangements for incoming students in the Fall and Spring semesters. The membership of our organization and the Office of the ISS clearly realize the importance of this service. For an international student the clime and the general setting of a foreign university can be quite a daunting task to handle. As an RSO comprised mostly of International students we can thoroughly understand the position of students who are in the process of joining the university. Hence our Pick Up and Temporary accommodation arrangements start atleast a month and a half before the fall , Summer and spring semesters. More>>
