Which university accepts the most international students?

I'm really curious about which universities in the US are known for having a high number of international students. I'm planning to study abroad, and I'd love to hear about schools that embrace international diversity.

Several universities across the United States have large international student populations and invite diversity. While you should remember that the number of international students doesn't necessarily correlate with the quality of support and resources available to those students, it can be a helpful indicator of a school's global reach and appeal.

New York University (NYU) in New York City is well known for its high number of international students. In recent years, NYU has had more international students than any other university in the U.S.

The University of Southern California (USC) in Los Angeles is another institution with a significant international student body.

Northeastern University in Boston also frequently ranks high among institutions with international student representation. One of the reasons is their robust co-op program, which provides practical real-world experiences for all students, domestic and international alike.

Each of these institutions has support services to ensure that their international students adjust and thrive in their new environment, which is another meaningful area to look into as you make decisions about where to apply!

Remember, it's not just about the raw numbers, though. You'll also want to consider the types of resources and support the university offers for international students, the opportunities you'll have to engage with the broader community, and most importantly, whether the school is a good academic and cultural fit for your interests and goals. For instance, if you're interested in a particular field of study, look for schools that not only welcome a diverse international population but also have strong programs in your area of interest.
