What We Do
We strive to be well connected to other offices and departments on campus in order to support the entire experience of our international students and scholars. A total of 12.8% of Lehigh's student population in 2025 were international students.
We provide intentional programming designed to bolster the professional and personal development of our international community. We also provide an avenue for our represented countries and cultures to share and engage with the greater campus community.
We continually advocate on behalf of our students and scholars regarding immigration, academic, and personal matters to ensure that their voices are heard within the Lehigh community and beyond.
We aim to facilitate ways for our international students and scholars to engage beyond the Lehigh campus.
We empower Lehigh's international community to take ownership of their immigration status, and academic and professional goals.
