The Community College of Philadelphia has a bold vision of ushering international students into the American dream, and a new 11-story, double-tower housing project to be built by the Radnor Property Group is at the center of the plan.

The Radnor Property Group’s $130 million transformation of a parking garage and industrial building just a block from the CCP campus into student housing is key to the college’s new strategy of recruiting international students, according to a Philadelphia Magazine report by Fabiola Cineas.

“You can’t realistically recruit international students without housing,” CCP President Donald Generals said in the article. “I think we are grossly underserving that market, and I think it’s a growing market.”

An initial timeline has the Radnor Property Group starting the project in 2017 and finishing in 2018. In the meantime, CCP has also inked an agreement with Quad Learning to help recruit foreign students and utilize CCP as a pipeline to four-year colleges and universities.
