International Friends Program (IFP)
The International Friends Program (IFP) promotes friendship and cultural exchange by matching current FAU students with new, incoming international students in order to help them adjust to life at FAU more easily. The peer friends serve as important resources for new international students who have many questions and concerns during their transition to FAU. We also have fun activities as a group, such as global love event, coffee hours, ropes course challenge, and much more!
If you have any questions, please email us at ifp@fau.edu
