Activities and Events

International Student Life

The International Student Life Team offers many different activities and events throughout the year to help students explore and learn about Portland and the Pacific Northwest, try new cuisines and restaurants, engage with other students, practice speaking English, and have a great time while studying at PCC! All activities and events are announced in our weekly International Student Newsletter, which is emailed to all international students each Monday morning. You can also find information about upcoming activities and events on our Facebook, Instagram, and X accounts!

We host on-campus, off-campus, and virtual activities and events every quarter for students to join. All opportunities are free to attend! Check our newsletter and social media each week for upcoming activities and events! All current international students receive our newsletter each week.

Talk Time Café

Talk Time Café is a weekly English conversation group led by our International Peer Leaders at each campus. Each week we’ll learn about a different topic, PCC resource, and more!
