Programs
Welcome to Carnegie Mellon's vibrant international community! Our Virtual Neighbors Program and Host Family Program are designed to help international students feel at home, even when they're far from it. Both programs aim to foster meaningful relationships, cultural exchange, and a sense of belonging, ensuring that every international student feels supported and integrated into the CMU family.
The Virtual Neighbors Program
The Host Family Program
This program provides informal opportunities for international undergraduate and graduate students (ages 18 and older) to connect with volunteer hosts in the Pittsburgh community, agreeing to get together once a month or so.
