Description

In 2016-2017, University Programs established strong working relationships with new leadership for Study Group North America, explored a potential partnership for language-only programs through their Embassy division, and investigated and reaffirmed the current practice of enrolling ISC students as non-degree-seeking. Enrollment at the ISC was 101 international students in Fall 2016 and 75 in Spring 2017. These students represent 15 countries and 16 academic majors. 58 students completed the program and joined/will join JMU in 2017.
