International Student Experience

Coming soon

About 50,000 international students arrive here in Boston every year. So there is this diversity of representation from all over the world. At South Ed, over 90 countries are typically represented our student bodies. So that, to me, all is diversity.

The city of Boston, in itself, apart from the campus, is super diverse, so just walking around town and like being in this environment, you you don't really feel like you're an outsider.

You feel like you know you're in a place. You're mixing, you're doing things and and I can tell you as like a person did not grow up here coming here, like I didn't feel that bad in terms like culture shock or like anxiety, because I just felt like I was already part of something. A lot of the faculty are international.

A lot of the staff as well is international. And we have supporting groups, programs like academic advising. We also have tutoring, and we help a lot of the students in getting adjusted to the culture at Suffolk, I've met a lot of people from all around the world. I've met people from Indonesia, Greece, Guatemala, Sudan, Morocco, really, everywhere.

And I know that I've learned a lot through those like interpersonal relationships that I don't think I would have gone anywhere else, but I feel very safe here. You are. Safe here. And the school does a lot, there's all these resources around from them, and they always want to make sure you're safe.
