Welcome to UW! Fall 2026 International Welcome Program event details will be available on June 1st, 2026!

To support new international students as they begin their journey at the UW and settle into life in Seattle, CIRCLE—working closely with key campus partners—will lead the International Welcome Programs (IWP) each quarter (summer, fall, winter, and spring). These programs will offer tailored events and resources designed to address the unique needs of international students and connect them with essential information and services.

Fall IWP will run from September 21 to October 2, 2026. We look forward to welcoming you to the University of Washington!
