Each year, Kendall College is privileged to welcome international students from all over the world. It is our belief that international students and faculty are an integral part of Kendall’s unique culture. At Kendall we provide a rich and diverse learning environment immersed in the heart of Chicago’s business, hospitality, and culinary cultures. As the third largest city in the United States, Chicago combines mid-western hospitality in a cosmopolitan setting. In case you didn't already know, let me tell you a little more about our great City.
You will find that Chicago is one of the most diverse cities in the United States. This provides you with a world of opportunity steps away from our campus. Here are some examples of what you will experience here in Chicago:
- Three of the top 4 hotels in North America
- One of the largest Business Centers in the United States
- Over 17,000 restaurants representing cuisines from around the world
- World-renowned music festivals, art museums, and theater
- Kendall’s residence hall is located on Chicago’s Magnificent Mile, one of North America’s premiere shopping districts
- Steps away from Navy Pier and Millennium Park
We are dedicated to your academic, professional, and personal success. All of Kendall’s resources are easily accessible to international students including Housing, Student Advising, Financial Aid, and our Academic Success Center. Additionally, our Career Services department can help with internships, part-time employment, job placement, and alumni networking.
I am personally here to help international students throughout the admissions process. Please do not hesitate to contact me at any time of day to find out more about Kendall, student life, how to apply, housing options, visas, and scholarships. We have created two special sections on our website to help answer your questions:
Information for new international students
Information for student currently enrolled in a Les Roches program
I look forward to speaking with you.
Warm regards,
Thomas P. FitzGibbon, III
Director of International Admissions
