Note to Parents & Families
Dear Parent,
You want your student to explore new things and have the professional skills and experiences that will help ensure their future success. But the thought of them studying far from home is daunting.
We understand.
At New York Tech, we offer international students a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to study in cosmopolitan New York while enjoying a supportive environment that helps them adjust to new challenges. Our graduates are prized by employers for their global acumen, communications skills, independent and critical thinking, and mature approach.
Our award-winning educational model focuses on providing students with an exceptional, career-focused education supported by:
- Top-notch experiential opportunities at global companies, including externships and post-graduation (OPT) employment where students learn and work with industry professionals before bringing their new skill set back to their home country.
- Dedicated services for international students that help them acclimate to learning and living in New York. Your student will have a mentor from his or her own country to help navigate through New York Tech’s academic rigors and way of life in America.
- New York Tech’s English Language Institute, which helps students learn and practice American English for business and social purposes.
- Campuses in New York City and Long Island that are among the safest in the United States—near well-known ethnic neighborhoods that can offer them a little taste of home.
- Lifelong career services, including events, professional development, resume preparation, and networking among New York Tech’s 100,000 alumni who are standout leaders in their respective industries.
We encourage you and your student to explore the many ways that New York Tech supports international education.
