SUNY Korea Hosts Spring 2026 Convocation for 181 New Students SUNY Korea successfully held the Spring 2026 Convocation Ceremony on Thursday, February 26, 2026, welcoming a record-breaking 181 new students — the largest spring intake in the university’s history. The incoming class represents nine countries, including Korea, the United States, Nicaragua, Nigeria, South Africa, Mongolia, Kazakhstan, Brazil, and El Salvador. The diversity of this cohort highlights SUNY Korea’s continued growth and its commitment to fostering a globally connected academic community. The ceremony featured a welcome address by President Arthur Lee, followed by congratulatory remarks from Andrea Goldsmith, President of Stony Brook University. Key highlights included the student oath, scholarship awards, and the SUNY Korea pin ceremony. In his address, President Lee encouraged students to embrace both ambition and resilience. “Today marks the beginning of a transformative journey,” he stated. “Do not be afraid of failure — it is part of the learning process. Challenge yourselves, remain curious, and take full advantage of the opportunities that lie ahead.” Notably, 83 of the 181 incoming students — approximately 46% of the class — received scholarships or financial aid, reflecting SUNY Korea's commitment to both academic excellence and educational access. The day after the ceremony, on Friday, February 27, the students – majoring in Applied Mathematics and Statistics, Business Management, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, and Technology and Society – officially began the Spring 2026 semester with the first day of classes.
