International Education Week

St. Lawrence University celebrates International Education!

Each November, St. Lawrence University joins the U.S. Department of State and U.S. Department of Education in celebrating international education and exchange. This includes celebrating the contributions and impact of international students to St. Lawrence's campus and promoting awareness about opportunities to study off-campus. 

Throughout the week, student clubs and organizations, offices on-campus and other campus community members will offer a robust range of activities that are open to all.
