International Connections Program
First-year international students at Lawrence are matched with an upper-class student over the summer. This upper-class student will be a resource for incoming students over the summer and help them adjust to campus. Learn more about the International Connections Program.
Friendship Family Program
The Friendship Family Program is designed to supplement international students' Lawrence experience by getting them off campus and into the community. It's also an informal way to experience typical American family life, culture, and traditions. Learn more about the Friendship Family Program.
