Annual Impact Report

“International students generally have resources to come and study in a different country, but, like all students, things pop up which leave them in a tough spot. Sometimes they need to rush home for something family related, or they’re working on something academic and they don’t have spare money to go to a conference or present research... This fund is intended to encourage people who might want to come here and study — and to help give them the support they need.”
