EducationUSA Outreach

EducationUSA is a global network of more than 450 advising centers supported by the Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs at the U.S. Department of State. The Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs (ECA) fosters mutual understanding between the United States and other countries by promoting personal, professional, and institutional ties between private citizens and organizations in the United States and abroad, as well as by presenting U.S. history, society, art and culture in all of its diversity to overseas audiences. The Foreign Students of Yesterday are becoming the World Leaders Today.

EducationUSA centers actively promote United States higher education around the world by offering accurate, unbiased, comprehensive, objective and timely information about education institutions in the United States and guidance to qualified individuals on how best to access those opportunities. Millions of prospective students learn about U.S. study opportunities through EducationUSA centers each year. Centers are staffed by professional advisers, many of whom have first-hand experience having studied in the United States themselves, and/or having received State Department-approved training about United States higher education and the advising process.

International students can benefit by from EducationUSA outreach by hearing about studying in the U.S. straight from U.S. students and be more encouraged and better prepared for their U.S. study. EducationUSA advisors can recruit study abroad students in their area to do these outreach presentations for international students. Upon return from their U.S. study, international students, with the help of international student advisors in the U.S., can promote U.S. study to future international students.
