International Students
Welcome All
A diverse community of global learners.
At Williams, the student body consistently demonstrates a dedication to excellence in scholarship in concert with a desire to share talents in the arts, athletics, service, and leadership. Respect for oneself and others while meeting significant academic challenges requires integrity, self-discipline, and a high level of motivation. Successful applicants to Williams demonstrate achievement in all of these areas.
At Williams, we are excited to welcome prospective International students to our community. We work with APEX International Education Partners for recruiting and boarding services.
Meet Our Students
Meet Julia W. '29
“I’m having a great time at Williams! The teachers and students always support and encourage me, especially with my English. For example, I struggled to learn the language and became quite frustrated. Eventually, I emailed Mr. Cote for advice on how to improve. He was incredibly kind and gave me a stack of books to read! I’m still reading them, and the stories are so interesting.”
Julia’s Activities: Basketball, Compchorea, Cross Country, and Winterfest
