Lindsey Wilson College has a long history of welcoming international students. About 40 countries are represented annually in Lindsey Wilson's student body, which helps create a true global village environment on campus. That makes Lindsey Wilson a great place to learn about American culture and also an ideal place to interact with other people from all over the world.

Many Lindsey Wilson international students are student-athletes who participate on one of the college's 19 intercollegiate teams. Other international students are drawn to the college for the opportunity to study in a rural setting and become immersed in American culture. Lindsey Wilson has a formal exchange program with schools in China, Japan and Northern Ireland.

Each new international student is assigned to a host family from the Lindsey Wilson faculty and staff or from the local community. In addition to providing international students with emotional and psychological support, host families participate twice a year at an international student dinner.

A vibrant International Student Club, which includes international and American students, offers a plethora of activities throughout the school year, including trips to area attractions, picnics at some of the region's scenic lakes and other social gatherings.
