About Iranian Students Associations at UVA (IRSA)
IRSA is a nonprofit organization run by Iranian Students at the University of Virginia established in Fall 2016. Our mission and goals are as follows:
- To create a delightful environment, rapid transition, integration and smooth adjustment for the Iranian students at UVa, to help them face educational and cultural issues here and to strengthen community among them.
- To introduce Iranian culture to other students and communities by holding cultural and social events.
- To provide a friendly atmosphere to enrich relations among students, faculty, other communities and associations.
Any person interested in IRSA and its activities can become a member of this association by official registration. There is no membership fee. Membership is restricted to regularly enrolled University of Virginia students, faculty, and staff and and also alumni.
