International Students

DePauw University has a long history of welcoming international students to study on campus, and we are recognized as a national leader for our percentage of students who study abroad. To continue to broaden cultural perspectives and better prepare our students for a complex and interrelated world, our five year strategic plan calls for helping more students to study abroad and increasing the number of international students who enroll at DePauw.

The value of the DePauw experience is reflected in the uncommon professional success of our graduates and their contributions to the world around them. Our January "Winter Term" provides the opportunity to integrate practical experience through internships at corporate, scientific, and nonprofit organizations across the United States and around the world. Top students are especially challenged in DePauw's five enhanced study programs, collectively known as the Programs of Distinction.

We invite you to consider thinking about what you could offer as well as gain by joining the DePauw University community.

For the Winter Term in Service project in Costa Rica we’ll probably be working in a remote village of one of the four indigenous groups who still practice their native culture.  We’ll be helping to finish an aqueduct for drinking water.
