Sessions For: Student Life (International Center)

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.
Cords are available to any student graduating with their degree in December 2025. International graduates can pick up their cord at the International Center the week of December 8. Official pickup times are listed under the event. If you miss your pick up slot, you do not need to re-register, just show up at the next available time!
Exchange students and scholars are not eligible for graduation cords.

The International Center is excited to virtually meet new international students who will begin their studies in Winter 2026!


This event is designed to help new international students gain valuable information about University of Michigan services, life in the USA/Ann Arbor, campus resources and valuable immigration information. Attendees may also submit questions in advance when they register.
Sessions will be recorded and will be shared with attendees afterwards.
