International students

The W. P. Carey School of Business is a truly global community, where students learn to understand and appreciate other cultures firsthand. International students experience a microcosm of the United States, learning alongside students from every state nationwide. Domestic students benefit from the diverse perspectives and cultures that international students share from countries all over the world. The result is a welcoming, inclusive environment — where every student feels at home, and has the resources and support they need to thrive.

Peer mentorship

Peer-to-peer mentoring helps international students acclimate to life in the United States, and offers domestic students a unique opportunity for personal and professional growth. W. P. Carey Mentorship Programs include an option for incoming first-year students — Connectors — which matches new business students with a peer mentor who is a sophomore, junior, or senior at the W. P. Carey School. Peer mentors offer one-on-one guidance throughout your first year at ASU, which can be particularly helpful for new international students. Learn more through W. P. Carey Career Services.

ASU Global Guides are current domestic and international student leaders, who volunteer their time to help new international students transition to life at ASU. New international students can request to be matched with a Global Guide, for assistance integrating into the larger ASU community — learn more about ASU Global Guides.
