Our higher education commitment partners comprise a broad and diverse array of colleges and universities. By joining, you will help demonstrate higher education’s wide-reaching dedication to international student success.
We recognize that globally mobile students have choices when it comes to deciding where to study, live, and work. Building on the commitment of the U.S. government, higher education sector, and business community, the Coalition seeks to support initiatives to welcome and retain international talent in an increasingly competitive global market.
The Coalition aims to increase and diversify international student enrollment and post-graduation pathways across all U.S. states and territories. The Coalition is committed to including a broad range of higher education institutions – including private colleges and universities, flagship institutions, community colleges, historically Black colleges, and minority-serving institutions – and to supporting all colleges and universities in their efforts to achieve these goals.
