International students are an important presence on college campuses. They add diversity, revenue, and jobs. According to NAFSA: Association of International Educators,  international students contributed $32.8 billion dollars and 400,000 jobs to the United States economy. Colleges and universities are looking for ways to reach out to international students. How can you attract international students to your college or university? We wanted to provide some insight based on our experience as a provider of education translation services.

HOW TO ATTRACT INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS…

BUILD YOUR ONLINE PRESENCE

Take a look at your website. Is it easy to navigate? Provide necessary content, and make sure that it is easy to access. We recommend creating a microsite for international students. This puts information that they need right at their fingertips. Such information includes travel information, visa information, international student clubs on campus, campus activities, etc.

Provide content to international students in their native language. What languages do you translate into? Identify your focus countries. Research what languages are spoken there. Translating website content creates a welcoming atmosphere right away.

Add a virtual campus tour. This is a great way to bring your campus to your prospective students. (It’s not as easy for them to visit.) A virtual tour can provide a sense of atmosphere and also shows off campus facilities.

TELL A STORY

Most colleges and universities have strong alumni bases. Reach out to your international alumni and have them tell their stories. You can use written or video testimonials. More detail is best. Subtitling is an option for videos; international students can watch, listen, and/or read in English or their native language.

TRANSLATE YOUR MATERIALS

Brochures, pamphlets, letters, and other print materials are distributed to prospective students. This content is also available for download on your website. Consider translating your marketing content to better reach international students. Take it a step further, create marketing content for specific markets. Transcreation is an option – it adapts your message from one language to another. Multilingual desktop publishing (DTP) teams can work with your design files.  We can work in any file type and make sure translated content looks great (and culturally appropriate) within your layout.

In addition to your marketing materials, it may be a great idea to translate materials such as course catalogs or information packets.

A college or university is like an academic community. The best way to attract international students is to create a community where they feel welcome. At LinguaLinx, we partner with higher education institutions reach out to international students all over the world.
