Warm Minnesota Greetings from the Center for International Education!

It may be cold during certain seasons here in Minnesota, but you will always be greeted by open arms and warm smiles when you stop by the Center for International Education (CIE). The CIE is the primary contact for international students from the time of application to graduation. We look forward to assisting you while you attend Southwest Minnesota State University (SMSU)! We will do our best to make SMSU your "home-away-from-home."

The CIE also oversees study abroad opportunities at SMSU. If you are interested in studying abroad in a different country, please contact us and make an appointment to talk about the numerous options available.

Throughout your studies we will do what we can to help you adjust to the culture and support you as you strive to accomplish your academic and career goals. Not only is our office is here to assist you whenever we can, we also host many university events throughout the year. We look forward to meeting you soon!
