Go Global With CultureLink

This program connects international students with American students, faculty and staff for a global experience through two mediums: CultureLink Friendship Family and Communication Partners.

The Communication Partners program connects international students with UST students, faculty or staff members for developing friendships and learning about cultures and traditions. Together, Communication Partners experience life in the Twin Cities, learn about each other's countries, and get a valuable international experience!

The CultureLink Friendship Family program matches new international students with American families from local communities. Founded on the conviction that we should learn from each other, the program provides cultural experience for community members and helps international students experience true Minnesota culture in American families. Our goal is to make the St. Thomas community a home away from home for international students!

Don’t Delay! American students are looking forward to sharing their experience with you. Visit the CultureLink web page and apply online.

If you have any questions, please refer to the program web page listed above or contact Nancy Lo, Graduate Student Assistant at 651-962-6650.
