International Student

The International Center is excited to celebrate the academic achievement of our international graduates this May with an International Student Graduation Cord! The International Student Graduation Cord is an initiative to showcase the broad impact of international students at U-M. These blue and green cords are intended to bring visibility to the significant contributions of international students both in and out of the classroom. There is no charge for the graduation cord.

Come play another pick-up soccer game with the IC! This month’s game will be played indoors at the Sports Coliseum on a hard court (much like futsal).

This will be a very casual game and is meant for meeting other international students and scholars. We recommend bringing athletic clothing, gym shoes, and a water bottle.
