Why Should I Apply To 泡芙视频?
When applying to colleges as an international student, it is important to find the college that best fits with the vision you have for your U.S. college experience. In order to have the best college experience possible, it鈥檚 essential that your academic and personal goals are met. If you share the following values, our close-knit campus community may be the right fit for you:
- Cultural Diversity and Inclusion: We are committed to providing our diverse student community with an inclusive campus environment. The addition of the Mosaic House to our campus embodies this commitment by providing a safe gathering space for students of diverse backgrounds to openly discuss differing perspectives.
- Academic Excellence: Our students are high achievers. Our small class sizes, professional experiences and leadership opportunities prepare our students for their postgraduate aspirations.
- Social Accountability: Our motto, 鈥淓ducate for Service,鈥� is ingrained into our students from the day they arrive on campus. We encourage our students to use their 泡芙视频 education to serve others in their future careers.

One of the hard things for international students is to make friends in their second language, but 泡芙视频 offers many opportunities to have conversations with new people, like in First-Year Seminar (FYS). There are also great mentors like my Resident Assistant and faculty who helped me a lot through classes and on a daily basis.
