#  Meet our awesome FIP 2026 Student Leaders! 

 



##  2026 FIP Co-Chairs: Mathia Kalash & Victor Ngow 

As your FIP Co-Chairs we work closely with the FIP Director, Jasmine Stecker, to support all aspects of FIP planning. We lead a community of **48 FIP leaders** who are the heart of the program. It is their commitment and devotion to FIP that makes the program such a powerful experience for incoming international students.
