international student services One of the things that makes SCAD so interesting is the diversity in backgrounds and culture among our students. We are excited to host students from many countries and we have a full-service team to support you throughout your SCAD experience.

Intercultural clubs, socials and discussion groups help you make connections with fellow students and increase your comfort living and studying in a new country.
