Introducing the J-1 Exchange Buddy Program again at UMBC's Center for Global Engagement!
This program offers a rewarding opportunity for students to assist our new international exchange students as they adjust to life in the U.S.

By joining the Buddy Program, students will be paired with a new exchange student, helping them navigate their transition and enriching their experience at UMBC. We are launching the program again for the upcoming Fall 2025 and Academic Year 2025-2026 and we’re looking for enthusiastic participants.

Important Details:

Application Deadline: April 21
