Which universities have a large number of international students?

I'm interested in attending a diverse university with a significant international student population. Can anyone share which schools have the most international students and how that influences campus culture?

Sure, several universities in the United States are known for their extensive international student populations. Here are some:

1. New York University (NYU) - NYU consistently ranks among the schools with the most international students. The campus is incredibly diverse, with students hailing from over 150 different countries.

2. University of Southern California (USC) - USC is another college with a high number of international students. This contributes to a global perspective in classroom discussions and increases cultural exchange on campus.

3. Columbia University - Columbia has a notable number of students from other countries, leading to a diverse campus that promotes global learning and understanding.

4. Northeastern University - Northeastern is also well-known for its international student population, thanks to its co-op program that allows students to gain work experience both in the U.S. and abroad.

5. Illinois Institute of Technology - Unlike the previous universities that are large and have many programs, Illinois Tech is mostly focused on Engineering and Business, and almost half of their students are international students.

These universities tend to have a strong international flavor embedded into their campus culture, allowing students to form connections with peers from various cultural backgrounds. This could translate to cultural festivals, a wide array of international cuisine on campus, global learning opportunities, and a wide variety of language learning resources. It's an enriching environment that broadens your perspective and understanding of the world and typically encourages open dialogue, inclusivity, and mutual respect among students of different backgrounds.
