INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS GUIDE
Coming from Bahrain, I chose Saint Rose because of the business internship program and the Saint Rose community. I am President of the International Student Organization, an RA, a student representative for Student Association and member of the American Marketing Association. Putting myself out there, and working with people from various cultures, has impacted my education and experiences. Rohit Ahuja ’18, Business Administration, concentration in Finance
