Hey, I'm an international student thinking about applying to Yale. I was wondering if anyone knows the approximate percentage of foreign students attending Yale. Additionally, are there any resources or clubs specifically catered to international students? Thanks a bunch!
The approximate percentage of international students at Yale is around 30% of the total undergraduate population. This number may vary slightly from year to year but gives you a general idea of the representation of international students at Yale.
Yale offers many resources and support for international students. The Office of International Students & Scholars (OISS) is a valuable resource for international students, providing guidance on issues such as visas, maintaining legal status, and adjusting to life at Yale. Additionally, OISS organizes events to help international students connect and feel at home with their peers.
In terms of clubs and organizations, there are several available to international students. Some examples include the Native and Indigenous Student Association at Yale, the South Asian Society, the Malaysian and Singaporean Association, and the Chinese Students and Scholars Association. These organizations cater to specific cultural or regional groups, allowing international students to find a sense of community and celebrate their unique backgrounds with fellow students who share similar experiences.
Best of luck in your application process, and I'm sure you'll find a welcoming environment at Yale as an international student!
