International Information Sessions

These virtual information sessions are the perfect way for students to learn more about UMass Lowell and our application process. International admissions counselors will be on hand to answer any questions your students have. Attendees will receive an application fee waiver.

Merit-Based Scholarships

Your students may be eligible for merit-based scholarships. Awards range from $5,000 to $20,000 and are renewable for four years (eight semesters). Your students are automatically considered for the scholarships they are eligible for—no special application is necessary.

Career & Co-op Center

Value matters right now, and value is where UMass Lowell has always stood above the rest. We're not just talking about low tuition and high future earning potential. We're talking about our impressive job placement rates, our relationships with major employers, our co-op programs, our network of student services and all the ways beyond the classroom that we prepare our students to lead. Our Career & Co-op Center is one of many supports available to students that will help them graduate with the skills employers value.

International Bridge Program

The UMass Lowell International Bridge Program (IBP) is a special enrollment option for international first-year applicants who demonstrate significant potential but whose language proficiency requires additional development.
