AIRC Webinar Series Tackles the Diverse Ways 

International Students Access U.S. Higher Ed 

and Why It Matters for Recruitment

FALLS CHURCH, VA – April 18, 2024 – AIRC: The Association of International Enrollment Management announces a new webinar series: U.S. Entry Points for International Student Educational Avenues. 

This wide-ranging series will focus on the many entry points international students use to access higher education in the U.S. Each webinar will closely examine diverse avenues involving English Language Programs, Community Colleges and University Transfer Admission, International Student Athletes, Secondary School Recruitment and Admission, and Cultural Exchanges, Vocational Training, Community Engagement, and Non-Credit Experiences. 

Participants will learn why each of these entry points, and the many connections among them, should be a chief consideration when developing and implementing an international student recruitment and enrollment plan. 

Webinar attendees will hear directly from experts working in model institutions and organizations that facilitate these entry points, including EnglishUSA, Oxford International Digital Institute, The Association of Boarding Schools (TABS), Shoreline Community College, AmeriCamp, and many more. 

From May through September, AIRC Members can register for each webinar for free, with non-AIRC members paying $35 per webinar. The online sessions will be easily accessible through the AIRC website. 

AIRC’s Executive Director, Clay Harmon EdD, notes, “Attending the entire series will provide the most value. Learning the connections and intricacies between each of these entry points, will help you, your team, and your organization or institution better understand how to support international students at every level and what you need to do to make it happen.” 

Webinar listeners will also learn how to create and sustain international student educational avenues, identify the associations and organizations that support, promote, and advocate for these diverse journeys, and better grasp how international students often move through a variety of experiences along these entry points to the U.S.
