About Us

The Office for Global Education is committed to assisting Purchase College in educating successful global citizens.

Whether you are a prospective or current international student on our campus, or you are looking to have a cultural immersion experience through a study abroad or study away program, the Office for Global Education is here to help!

Additional programming includes helping international students get to know each other and our campus during International Orientation, and hosting the annual (T)HERE: A Global Festival of Arts, Culture & Ideas to bring together art and culture from around the world right here on our campus.

In the spring of 2021 Purchase joined the United Nation’s University Global Coalition (UGC), signaling its ongoing commitment to sustainability and social justice locally and globally. Learn more in this video.

Your time at Purchase is one to explore and connect and we’re here to help you get started! Stop by our office to learn more about taking the first step. You can find us on the 2nd floor of the Student Services Building or contact us here for more information.
