Adjusting to a college out of your home country can be a monumental task. Whitman College provides a special orientation program for our international students to help smooth your adjustment between home and college. International Student Orientation is mandatory for all incoming international students and is free of charge. Explore our orientation program and how International Student and Scholar Services can help you feel at home in Walla Walla.
Our Whitman alumni are thrilled to welcome you to the family. They really know what it means to be a Whittie and how it can change your life.
You can start networking now with this welcoming group. If you sign up for “A Whittie Welcome,” you’ll receive a call from one of our devoted and energetic alumni, who might even have similar interests to you. Ask them about their Whitman experience, learn tips and campus history, and start a relationship that could last for years to come.
