The Reves Center for International Studies advances the internationalization of teaching, learning and research at William & Mary, ensuring an international dimension is present in the university's priorities. Global education, support for international students and scholars, and the enrichment of our global community are at the heart of the Reves Center’s work. Established in 1989, the Reves Center is today one of the premier international centers in higher education.
William & Mary is the number four public university for undergraduate study abroad participation, with more than 55 percent of the university’s undergraduates studying outside the U.S. before graduation. In a typical year, more than 1,200 international students, scholars, and their families from nearly 70 countries come to William & Mary.
