A Year in the Fulbright Life: Leen’s Story

For the next year, Fulbright MENA will be showcasing a handful of students as they study in the United States with their new series, A Year in the Fulbright Life. Each month, spotlighted students will share an update as they continue on their Fulbright journey.

Settling in a new culture is not an easy thing to do, but the international student orientation organized by Global Penn State made the transition much easier. I had the chance to meet new people from all over the world, got to know the university’s history and achievements, and explored the campus facilities and services. I’m so excited for my journey here at Penn State University.

The Fulbright experience is one of a kind because it opens the door to new opportunities where you can meet people from all over the world. You also get the chance to learn about other cultures and enjoy a good time together. I attended a great cultural event, “Welcome Cookout”, organized by Penn State University where international students gathered to chat, get to know each other, play games and share a tasty meal.
