About Howard University International Pals.
The International Pals are students from varying backgrounds and
pursuits, with
the singular intention of assisting incoming international students. We
aid in
the students’ journey from familiar surroundings to the strange new
world at
the Mecca. Additionally, we take on the responsibility of being their
friends,
guides, mentors and support systems throughout their years at the
University.
The International Pals are good sources of information for the students
and
their families, as we are willing and able to answer any of the
questions that
may arise.
The International Pals try to make the students’ experiences here
exceptional,
while at the same time, helping them keep focused on their goals of
being
successful and making the most of their tertiary education.
In essence, the International Pals are here to help them create a home
away from
home, while maintaining their native customs and cultures.
