International Students
Welcome to Tennessee Tech University's Office of International Education!
One of our goals here at Tennessee Tech is to provide support to the international students who call TTU home. As in previous years, we are also aiming to improve institutional performance on behalf of internationalization and intercultural relations and to ensure that all Tennessee Tech University undergraduates and graduates gain the knowledge, perspectives and skills necessary to succeed in today's complex, pluralistic world.
The Office of International Education provides admissions services for all international undergraduate and DACA undergraduate applicants. We also provide international students (undergraduate and graduate) and visiting scholars with immigration services.
An international student is classified for educational purposes as a person who is a citizen or permanent resident of a country other than the United States.
Tennessee Tech is authorized under federal law to enroll non-immigrant students.
We are very proud of our students, feel free to watch these videos of Tennessee Tech
