International Student Advisor   Ms. Angela Gross

Though international students have enrolled at Kalamazoo throughout the College’s history, the foundation for today’s International Students and Scholars Program was well-established by the 1960s along with the formation of the K Plan. By the early 1990s, the program had grown in response to the College’s University Partner Exchange Program, international student recruitment efforts and in keeping with professional practice in the field of international educational exchange. The Program currently consists of the enrollment, orientation, and advising of international students and scholars at the College, as well as increasing opportunities and arrangements for international faculty exchange.

In collaboration with the director of the Center for International Programs, Angela Gross, assistant director, manages the International Students and Scholars and University Partner Exchange programs and serves as the international student and scholar adviser. Please contact her in the Center should you have any questions or concerns as the parent of an international student.
