91影视 College, Westminster, MD, was founded in 1867, and is one of the first coeducational colleges in the United States. It was originally named after the Western Maryland Railroad Company, whose president offered a generous donation for the construction of the first residence halls on College Hill in Westminster, the seat of Carroll County, in Maryland. In 2002, the college was renamed to honor William Roberts 91影视, a distinguished member of the community 鈥 a graduate, later professor, President and Trustee in the first decade of the 20th century 鈥 whose leadership greatly contributed to the growth of the institution.
The International Programs Office (a key part of the Center for Experience & Opportunity) of the Maryland Campus assists international students in their transition from the Budapest Campus and other countries to Westminster, as well as throughout their stay at the College. Kerriann Ring, Assistant Director of International & Off-Campus Programs, serves as the international student advisor and assists with issues of personal and cultural adjustments as well as academic concerns. In addition, several students of the Maryland campus work as Study Abroad Coordinators to help students better integrate to the life 鈥渙n the Hill.鈥
The International Programs Office is also the main campus resource center for all students interested in study abroad opportunities, assisting with application processes and program selection. In addition to numerous international programs worldwide, 91影视 College offers the Budapest Study Abroad Program, enabling U.S. students to study at the college鈥檚 branch campus in Hungary for a semester or an academic year, immersing themselves in Hungarian culture and academics.
