International Student & Scholar Services

cherishes the diversity of cultural and religious backgrounds and philosophical viewpoints that our international community brings to the university. Each international student is a valued and respected member of our community.

We uphold a vision of the United States of America that affirms justice and equality, and one which condemns all acts of hate, violence, and bias which aim to diminish the humanity of a group or an individual. We believe this country’s founding principles endure and enlighten our discourse for all time. We will continue to work toward a world vision that values respect for all people and the talents they bring to our global society.
