International Buddy Program
Join the
International Buddy Program and use your experience to connect with inbound study abroad students here on campus! Students with previous education abroad experience, like you, are partnered with international and exchange students studying at The Catholic University of America. These "buddies" can help inbound students overcome the challenges of adapting to life in the U.S. as well as give them a local friend!
English Conversation Partners
The Intensive English Program is always in need of conversational partners for international students who are working on their English language skills in order to function as undergraduate or graduate students at the University. Volunteers meet with individuals from other cultures to share information about American culture and University culture in informal conversation for one hour a week. This commitment will contribute to the University-wide service commitment. To register, email
Dr. Anca Memoianu, lecturer.
