🚨 New Report: From Cities to the Countryside: International Students Studying in U.S. Towns and Rural Communities. 🔗 in bio.
Each year when we release the #OpenDoorsReport, conversations about student mobility paint pictures of international students flocking to universities in U.S. urban centers such as Boston, New York, and Los Angeles.
But did you know that international students in higher ed added $2.2 billion to small towns and supported more than 15,000 jobs* across the United States?
In our latest report with AIFS, we’re taking a deep dive into the role of international students in rural and small town America.
The report examines:
◾ The economic, academic, and social advantages international students bring to rural schools and their surrounding communities
◾ The geographic distribution of international students across U.S. small towns and rural areas
◾ The pathways that bring international students to rural high schools, colleges, and universities.
◾ Evidence-based recruitment strategies for rural schools and higher education institutions
◾ The advantages and challenges of studying in rural communities for international students, including how schools can support their academic success and adjustment.

The Fulbright Program hosted a reception at the Donald J. Trump Institute of Peace to celebrate the program's eight decades of excellence.
Since 1946, Fulbright has served as the U.S. government's premier international academic exchange program, connecting talented students, scholars, educators, artists, and professionals across more than 135 countries.
More than 450, 000 alumni have advanced scientific discovery, strengthened national economies, deepened diplomatic ties, and built lasting relationships that continue to benefit the United States and communities around the world.
Video remarks by Secretary of State Marco Rubio strongly underscored Fulbright's importance to the nation and the world: "the Fulbright program is not just America's gift to the world; it is a powerful strategic resource."
We are honored to administer the Fulbright Program on behalf of the Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs (ECA) of the U.S. Department of State, and look forward to continuing to advance prosperity, security, and innovation through international education.

What if you could understand the ocean by becoming a part of it?
Ocean Futures Fellows Lewis Kimaru and MURALIDHARA RAM MURUGAN created I Am Kelp to do just that.
This immersive media experience invites you to step into the life of a giant kelp and experience firsthand the rich—and delicate—ecosystem that depends on kelp forests to survive.
By combining immersive technology with ocean science, I Am Kelp demonstrates how interactive storytelling can make complex scientific concepts tangible, memorable, and deeply personal.
That's the goal of the Ocean Futures Fellowship: to make ocean science accessible and build a shared understanding and stewardship our oceans need.
Ready to build what comes next? Applications for the third cohort are open now through November 17, 11:59 PM U.S. Eastern Time. Link in bio to learn more and apply!
