The Bechtel Center is a great facility that serves its purpose when it comes to making sure that the students are comfortable and adjusting well to the Stanford campus. The Bechtel Center hosts a lot of cultural events such as Japan Day and Filipino cultural nights that is often put together by the Filipino-American Alumni.
Aside from these fun events, the Bechtel Center provides information regarding visas, study abroad, scholarships and other things that pertain to international students.
The website itself is chock full of information for students who plan to apply for scholarships and fellowships. Students can also come to the I-Center to get passport photos and get an ISIC card, which will help them get discounts for transportation and other services.
The students are also free to use the facilities, and are always assisted by the Bechtel staff. I’ve attached a link to the website, and the best things to look out for are the scholarship and grant information that they have for international students, and the classes and workshops link that they have on the site.
