international students

Overseas university attendees

International students are people pursuing education in a country where they are not citizens or permanent residents.

The term typically applies to higher education, where students travel abroad for undergraduate or graduate degrees, though it can include exchange programs at any level.

Universities often have dedicated offices for international students, addressing visa requirements, cultural adjustment, and language support.

The university's international students come from over 80 countries.
