Symposium to Focus on International Student Recruitment

A symposium scheduled Friday, Nov. 9 at the Buchanan Alumni House is being organized by the UMaine College of Education and Human Development and the Office of the Vice President for Enrollment Management to bring together Maine teachers and school administrators to discuss and share ideas about recruiting international students. Nearly 60 participants in addition to 18 international high school students studying in Maine will explore successful recruitment strategies and discuss classroom integration from 8:30 a.m. until 12:30 p.m. during the Educators of International Students in Maine Symposium. Both secondary and post-secondary schools in Maine and elsewhere are looking to enroll international students to boost tuition revenue.
