Abstract	American graduate schools command a strong aspiration among international students. However, there is a wide disparity in institutions' experience attracting and enrolling internationals students. Two out of every three international graduate students were enrolled in public institutions--an indication of international students' consideration of cost and affordability of studying abroad. Fifty-seven percent of all international students were enrolled in 108 Research Universities (very high research activities) by Carnegie Classification. This is a likely influence of institutional rankings and perception of prestige by many international students. International students consider rankings as a proxy of higher recognition by employers and hence a direct association with career advancement opportunities. Many students expect to receive more support identifying career opportunities. They assume that their high investment in education and the institutional reputation should entitle them to an experiential opportunity. This article focuses on 12 strategies to start building a capacity for international graduate student success. (As Provided).
