The University of Rhode Island (URI) welcomes students from around the world—currently from 67 different nations – and promotes international education and intercultural exchange by integrating a global perspective throughout all of its programs and campus life.
URI's safe, rural campus is only 16 kilometers from the Atlantic, located on the northeast coast of the U.S. between the major cities of Boston (121 kilometers) and New York City (257 kilometers). From campus, public bus transportation runs to Kingston's Amtrak train station and to Rhode Island's T.F. Green International Airport.
• URI offers merit scholarships to international freshmen applicants. These applicants must apply by the early action deadline of December 15, 2008. Please check the admission web site for details on the application process (www.uri.edu/ admission) .
