4MILE (Multicultural and International Leadership Experience) is an immersive week-long program uniquely designed to empower incoming international and domestic students through cultural exploration and leadership development.
Our five-day program aims to familiarize students with campus, with each day featuring new resources that are designed to support them throughout their academic journey. Participants will have peer counselors assigned to them who will serve as their mentors and guides during the program, including activities like Peer Counselors Connection and group dinners. There is also a two-day parent program.
The Intercultural Center launched 4MILE in the fall of 2006 with the enduring mission to ensure that new multicultural and international students feel a deep sense of belonging at Bryant. The program aims to cultivate a sense of community among these students and offer the Intercultural Center as a home away from home. Structured around four foundational pillars — Personal, Cultural, Social, and Career Development — each 4MILE event or workshop is designed to focus on one of these crucial areas.
