Meet Your ISP Counselors
Important Steps
- Prospective students: Contact the ISP Admission office at: daintladmissions@deanza.edu
- Newly admitted students: please wait to receive workshop information on academic counseling, assessment, registration and orientation before scheduling an appointment/drop-in session with a counselor.
- We recommend you log into Canvas (a program for online classrooms) to review the following:
Tip:
- If you are not able to log into the Canvas system, it is most likely because you have very recently been admitted to De Anza College. Please wait a few days, then re-try. If the issue continues, contact the ISP Admission office at: daintladmissions@deanza.edu
- Please see these helpful Canvas resources
Contact an International Student Academic Counselor for help relating to your academic goal and educational plan.

Here's How to Contact Academic Counselors:
