Global Buddy Program
The Global Buddy Program creates a mutual learning opportunity between Americans and international students. Buddies help international students and scholars adjust to living in the United States through support and friendship that begins before international students arrive on campus.
We are currently accepting applications for both Domestic and International buddies. If you have any questions or suggestions, please email globalbuddies@unco.edu.
English Conversation Groups
English conversation groups are opportunities to practice english in a variety of topics. Specifically vocabulary building and speaking confidence are emphasized.
The Conversation Group program is currently being revised. More details to come soon!
