Join Vanderbilt’s International Student and Scholar Services in welcoming Vanderbilt’s newest international students this fall by becoming a First Friend.
First Friends fill out an application and then are matched with a new Vanderbilt international student based on their common interests.
Read more about the First Friends program.
If you would like to be matched with a new international student, please complete a partner application. As with last year’s application, a background check will be required for all of our community partners.
If you have any questions, e-mail isss@vanderbilt.edu or call (615) 322-2753.
