SBC-USST International Students’ Voices A New Piece in My World Map

At SBC in Shanghai, students from around the globe come together, each bringing their own background and aspirations. This is a place to start your journey—a compact campus that sends you out into a world of possibilities.

Often, the best part of studying here often lies in the unexpected: the genuine friendship formed after mustering the courage to connect, the kind guidance offered when you’re lost, the quiet corner discovered in the middle of the city, or the deeper understanding of a culture you once only read about—now felt through firsthand experience.

In this feature, our international students share glimpses of their daily lives. Through their honest, vivid, and sometimes wonderfully awkward moments of exploration and growth, a living, breathing portrait of SBC comes together.
