International Student Testimonials
Saudi Arabia
“St. Norbert College has the perfect community for a student who wants to learn English. My plan was to only study English, but when I saw how helpful and nice people are, I decided to stay and continue studying for my undergraduate degree. Life at St. Norbert College changed the way I see others and how I interact with people from other countries. I do not think I would feel this comfortable in a different community, which makes coming here one of the best decisions I ever made.”
India
“I chose to come to St. Norbert College for several reasons. First, I received a good scholarship which made it attractive in comparison to other offers. Second, the college had a highly respected faculty, followed by having a small class model to allow in-depth learning.”
France
“I came to St. Norbert College because of women's ice hockey and their great academic program. Even if I'm away from home, it gives me a chance to grow as a person and a hockey player. It's a new home for me.”
Peru
“For me, going to college in a foreign country is not just four years in my life, it is a life in four years. A life that I have been enjoying since the beginning and I will never regret taking this opportunity.”
Vietnam
“As a junior at SNC, my time here flew by in a blink of an eye; it was thrilling, memorable and challenging at the same time. The thrills of learning new things everyday, in and out of the classrooms, the memories made with my new family full of other 20 year old students, and the challenges of navigating my early adult life, all incorporated into a part of an experience that I wouldn’t change for the world.”
Morocco
“I chose SNC because I wanted to challenge myself by being somewhere far, and expose myself to different cultures, mindsets and people! Oh, and the scholarships are pretty sweet too! At first, my experience here was a bit of a rollercoaster. It was hard to adjust. I grew up in a class with the same 20 people since I was 3 years old. We knew each other our whole life. Here, I was the outsider, I had to observe, analyze, then adapt and try to fit in friend groups. My favorite experience at SNC was making a group of life-long friends that I will forever remember. No matter how far we will be apart, we will always stay in touch.”
South Korea
“I came to St. Norbert College because the campus is beautiful and De Pere is a small safe community. SNC also has great food! The professors really care about their students. Additionally, since there are not many Koreans I get a chance to meet students from different countries.”
Peru
“Taking the leap to study at St. Norbert College was one of the greatest decisions of my life! With graduation near, I cannot help but reflect on the wonderful experiences and memories that I have enjoyed over the last four years. From meeting the international students to interning in Washington, D.C. to attending the Packer games, I have learned so much about myself and American life in the United States.”
Ecuador
“I chose to come to St. Norbert College because they offered more flexibility in welcoming international students for the time of a calendar year. SNC awarded me a scholarship and offered work opportunities; encouraging me to come here. Additionally, St. Norbert has a beautiful campus and small class sizes. I thought that the weather was going to be a problem, coming from Ecuador in South America. However, I realized that De Pere and the location of the campus allow students to have fun even in cold weather.”
Nepal
“The small class size with a collaborative approach to teaching makes St. Norbert College really special to me. I believe opportunities like undergraduate research, study abroad and internships at SNC support my ambition.”
