The Marquis at Waterview
Looking for a Home Group?
A Place to belong, grow and share life together.
The Marquis at Waterview Group is a welcoming space where International students can gather with each other and with American families to build friendships, enjoy good food, and have real conversations. We meet once a month in the clubhouse at Marquis at Waterview Apartments in Richardson—sharing life, exploring cultures, and supporting one another in a relaxed, meaningful way.
What to expect?
Meeting Place
The Marquis at Waterview Home Group meets at Waterview Apartments clubhouse, 800 West Runner Road, Richardson, TX. *The UTD bus stops here.
Food
Each gathering starts with a home-cooked meal-usually a mix of International and American favorites that bring people together.
Fun & Fellowship
We laugh, play games, and spend quality time getting to know one another. It's low-pressure, relaxed and fun.
Discussions
After dinner, we talk about real-life topics like culture, purpose, identity and faith. Whether you're curious about life in the US, making new friends or looking for connection, your voice is welcome.
We meet the 1st Saturday of every month at 5:00PM.
Contact Carol Edwards for more information.
What do our Saturday nights look like?
Supportive Community
This group isn’t just about a once-a-month event—it’s about being part of a community that shows up, listens, and encourages one another.
Cultural Exchange
You’ll meet people from around the world, practice conversational English, and experience new perspectives.
Who’s It For?
International students who are looking for real community and conversation.
Come As You Are
You don’t need to have all the answers or fit a certain mold. Whether you’re outgoing or reserved, or just curious, the Marquis at Waterview Group is a space where you can be yourself and be welcomed.
We only meet once a month—but what we share lasts much longer: community, encouragement, and friendships that matter.
