Connect with our Global Wildcats.
Interested in learning about the international student experience? Want to get in touch with a current student from your home country? Someone with similar academic interests? A current student involved in research? Something else?
Our Global Wildcats serve as international student ambassadors. By acting as a bridge between prospective and current international students, our Global Wildcats assist the Office of Undergraduate Admission in recruiting students from all over the world.

Fun Fact: I once ordered a papaya salad (which in my head sounded like a nice, fruity dessert). I subsequently almost choked on the very (!) intense spice and a crab claw that I did not expect to find.
In the future: I want to work for the European Union!
