“My name is Fatemah, and I am a Kuwaiti international student at Iowa State University’s College of Design. This is my first semester as a Pre-Architecture student, and I have been enjoying my explorations in design. I have worked on various fun projects in my core classes. And I find the environment of the College of Design to be very welcoming. There are plenty of opportunities here, and the faculty are very helpful and resourceful.” — Fatemah, Pre-Architecture

“As a first-year international student, I can’t be grateful enough to faculty and staff that take an important part as I am starting my square one and gradually settling at Iowa State University. I had no idea what I was about to cope with before starting my academic journey, but my advisor, peer mentors, and instructors are very welcome in every way I have difficulty with. I have enjoyed my design projects, not only I learn techniques, but I also learn the process and critical thinking with other students. I am looking forward to learning more for the next few years at Iowa State!” — Gabriele, Pre-Graphic Design
