Getting involved... campus life
International students are welcome to participate
in all of the
campus events.
They include those that are held for students only
by the CAC (

Almost every evening, students can go to a number
of fun, entertaining, educational, or informational
events.

Housing
Goshen College is a residential campus. This means that nearly all students live on campus. During the Christmas and summer breaks the residence halls are
closed. International students who are staying in Goshen
have housing options. The college opens some of the
off campus small group housing – where you can
stay during breaks. Students who want to stay in the
off campus housing during breaks must sign up with the
Student Life Office.
During the Christmas and summer breaks, there are
not many activities around campus. International students
who are staying around campus often make their own
activities. International potluck is a popular one
that international students do when there is nothing
else going on. This is when each person brings a meal
originally from his/her country to share with the
group. Everybody eats and enjoys a variety of good
food from all around the world! The International
Student Club also arranges activities such as: trips
to the beach and to Cedar Point (an amusement park
in Ohio) during the summer; sporting activities at the
on campus rec-fitness center; oriental or international
market trips; and movie / pizza nights.

International students find the Writing Lab service
very helpful. The writing tutor helps each student to
research, plan and write an organized, scholarly paper.
This service is free.
