Introducing our Fall 2024 IGSP Ambassadors! Stay tuned as they share their experiences as IGSP students at Penn!

Next up - Ruoxuan Chen! Learn more about Ruoxuan below ⬇️

“I am Ruoxuan Chen, a visiting student from China and a junior at the The Chinese University of Hong Kong, Shenzhen (CUHK-Shenzhen). I study accounting and marketing in my home university.

As a student majoring in accounting and management, I chose to study at UPenn for its distinguished faculty, abundant research resources, and the flexibility it offers to visiting students in course selection. I am also excited about Penn’s diverse student body and multicultural environment, which will grant me a valuable opportunity to advance my global perspective and cross-cultural communication skills, which are necessary to succeed in today’s interconnected world.

I am particularly eager to document my study abroad experience through photography and share these moments on social media. The IGSP is a vibrant and enthusiastic community. I enjoy meeting new people here from different cultural backgrounds and growing myself while helping others and am committed to creating a supportive and inclusive environment where everyone can thrive.”

First up - Xintong Li! Learn more about Xintong below ⬇️

“Hi, Quakers! I’m Xintong Li from Guangzhou, China 🇨🇳. I am a junior student studying English and History at Beijing Foreign Studies University 🥰. I’m excited to spend my fall semester at Penn!

🤩 My decision to become a Quaker was not a random choice. I had been looking for an Eden for interdisciplinary study that would allow me to enrich my academic arsenal and envision my future path. Penn holds the “first-class” ticket to that Eden. I do appreciate that the International Guest Student Program at Penn offers “free-walker” access to forefront positions in global academia, such as the College of Arts and Sciences and the Wharton and Engineering Schools. My interests in Sustainability and NGO studies can be fulfilled through Penn courses and extracurricular practices.

So far, my first month at Penn has proven my choice to be more than an one of “academic-excellent”. 🥳 Everything hap(PENN)ed in unexpected ways: having an orientation gala at Philadelphia Museum of Arts 🎊, joining Breakdancing 😎 and Kendo 🗡️ club, taking field trips to Washington DC or King of Prussia mall with classmates…You never know what’s coming next, but there won’t be any blank space in your Penn schedule!

I’m more than glad to share my Penn experience as an IGSP student. Please stay tuned at and find me at . Let’s go Quakers! 😆🔥❤️ ”
