“The Philadelphia Center allowed me to find a neighborhood that fit my personality. Living with roommates from three colleges gave me different perspectives and a sense of comfort away from home.”

International Students
The Philadelphia Center is a home away from home for many international students each semester, who are required to be enrolled full-time in a US-based college or university to participate in our program. In addition to the cultural diversity offered by Philadelphia itself, between 10% and 20% of TPC’s student population come from countries around the world. All international students are guaranteed an internship, which in most cases does not impact on allotted OPT hours. The list below highlights some of the countries represented by students participating in our program since 1967. .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address) International student advisors on each campus can also provide additional information.
