The U.S. Department of State's EducationUSA Program invites U.S. higher education institutions to host EducationUSA advisers on your campus in 2024. EducationUSA is a network of over 430 international student advising centers in more than 175 countries and territories. The network promotes U.S. higher education to students around the world by offering accurate information about opportunities to study at accredited postsecondary institutions in the United States. EducationUSA also provides free services to the U.S. higher education community to help institutional leaders meet their recruitment and campus internationalization goals.

Apply to host EducationUSA advisers on your campus virtually or in person. More information on hosting can be found on this website including hosting dates, costs, and a sample program schedule. Once on your campus, advisers can provide market intelligence and zero to low-cost recruitment strategies to help you develop an international student recruitment plan in their country and region; post information about your campus on their local EducationUSA social media pages; and host webinars with you and their students. This represents a chance to host advisers and boost your international profile.

Apply by September 15 to host pre- and post-conference campus visits in 2024. Please reach out to Susana Guzman if you have any questions about hosting.
