(Lauren Sanchez for WSN)During President-elect Donald Trump’s last administration, NYU bolstered its programming and resources for international students in an effort to combat a federal crackdown on immigration. Last year, the OGS and the Center for Student Life launched a support platform for NYU’s international student population. “This past academic year saw significant expansion and innovation in programming through the International Student Hub,” Sirinides said in a statement to WSN. “We introduced new initiatives to foster engagement and belonging among our international students.”The OGS has increased on-demand resources for international students with recorded sessions on visa applications, lawyer workshops and training sessions to help students apply for jobs and benefits. NYU has had one of the largest international student populations across U.S. universities for several years, comprising 44% of the university’s enrollment last academic year.
