Welcoming and Supporting Penn's International Community

The University of Pennsylvania recognizes and celebrates our international community as treasured, essential members of our global family. The messages and videos below, originally shared during the Fall of 2020, are a testament to our appreciation of Penn's international students and scholars and our commitment to making sure they feel welcomed and included in all aspects of campus life.

We proudly stand with you as treasured members of our University. Without you, Penn simply would not be what we are today: consistently ranked as one of the world’s most innovative universities. With you, Penn champions inclusion – we produce the greatest possible impact on our society and in the world.
