From Natalie Joseph Smith

Being in the intercultural student program at Seton Hill University was one of the highlights of my educational years. It allowed foreign students the opportunity to settle in, go shopping for stuff that they were not able to travel with, get accustom to the campus, get a feel for where things were, feeling at ease and confident in new surroundings and getting to know the other intercultural students. Seton Hill should never ever discontinue this program due to the vital role it plays in an international students’ concept of campus life and making him or her feel at ease during what is an exciting, but also stressful time in a young person’s life. It enabled me to meet the other incoming international students, who were all in similar situations as I. The Intercultural Student Programs at Seton Hill enabled college to be a smooth transition and to this day I can thank the program for giving me some amazing friendships.
