Academics

We understand that studying in a foreign country can be challenging, so from your first day at JMU, the International Study Center is here for you.

An International Year helps you adjust to American university life. You will also get help with study skills and English language, to make sure you succeed in the following three years of your chosen degree.

Studying at the International Study Center means that you will get the best of both worlds: the full JMU ‘all- American’ campus experience, plus the care of a supportive community that will help you adapt and thrive as an international student. And when you’re ready, you’ll progress to the second year of your chosen mainstream degree program, confident and fully prepared for the challenges of a JMU education.
