“International education creates that most unique of
possibilities, in which individuals of differing backgrounds,
faiths, and life experiences can come face to face and discover
ties of friendship and understanding.”
- NAFSA: Association of International Educators
L e t t e r f r o m t h e D i r e c t o rInternational Student & Scholar Services (ISSS) is committed to providing culturally sensitive services of the highest quality to international students and scholars. We are proud that the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign ranks 1st amongst US public institutions hosting international students (4th overall), and ranks 15th for US institutions hosting international scholars.
The UIUC welcomed a record 2,137 new international students to campus this fall. The top three countries represented were China (686), Korea (421), and India (226), accounting for 62.4% of our new student population. For the second year in a row new undergraduate students outnumbered graduate students, with 941 (44%) and 874 (40.9%) respectively. We also had 322 non-degree exchange students arrive on campus, a 21.1% increase from Fall 2008.
The number of enrolled international students is also at an all-time high of 6,562, an increase of 13.3% from Fall 2008. When broken down by level, graduate students account for 57.2% (3,757) of enrolled international students, undergraduates for 37.6% (2,465), and exchange students for 5.2% (340).
Our students represent 119 countries, with 80% coming from Asia. The top 5 countries represented are: China (1,674), South Korea (1,537), India (804), Taiwan (482), and Canada (130).
35.3% of all UIUC graduate students are international. International undergraduates account for 8.9% of the total undergraduate population (approximately 11.3% of these are non-degree exchange students), making the total percentage for all international students at UIUC 15.7 percent.
The College of Engineering hosts the greatest number of international students on campus, followed by the College of Liberal Arts & Sciences, with 2,395 and 1,890 international students, respectively. Electrical and Computer Engineering is the most popular department, with 691 international students. The other top ranking departments in terms of international student enrollment include Computer Science (410), Economics (343), Accountancy (285) and Civil and Environmental Engineering (275).
From July 2008 through June 2009, UIUC welcomed 1,630 international faculty and staff at UIUC. Over 30% were working and researching in Engineering, followed by nearly 13% in the Physical Sciences, and 9.9% in Biological & Biomedical Sciences. The most represented country was China, with 439 faculty and staff, followed by South Korea with 210, India with 205, Japan with 74, and Brazil with 64.
