Dear Advisors and Counselors,

Thank you for your interest in learning more about the University of Minnesota. Our dedication to providing a great education experience to international students began more than 100 years ago, and we are incredibly proud to be leaders in international education.

Since 1874, when we welcomed our first students from abroad (Canada and Denmark), our international student population on campus has grown considerably to over 5,100 students from more than 130 countries. We actively recruit to continue a strong and diverse representation of international students on our campus. We also offer many avenues for international students to share their culture with others through International Student and Scholar Services programming and more than 100 student-led groups with a cultural or linguistic affiliation.

We invite you to learn more about the University of Minnesota by exploring our website. Please contact us if you have any questions.
