SEI INTERNATIONAL TRUST -- AUGUST 31, 1996 (UNAUDITED)

1. ORGANIZATION
SEI International Trust, (the "Trust") was organized as a Massachusetts business
trust under a Declaration of Trust dated June 30, 1988. The operations of the
Trust commenced on December 20, 1989.
     The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended, as an open-end investment management company with three portfolios: the
International Equity Portfolio (formerly the Core International Equity
Portfolio), the Emerging Markets Equity Portfolio and the International Fixed
Income Portfolio (together the "Portfolios"). The Trust's prospectus provides a
description of each Funds investment objectives, policies, and strategies. The
Trust is registered to offer Class A shares of each of the Portfolios and Class
D shares of the International Equity Portfolio.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the
Portfolios in the preparation of the financial statements. The policies are in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
     The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
     SECURITY VALUATION -- Investment securities which are listed on a
securities exchange for which market quotations are readily available are valued
by an independent pricing service at the last quoted sales price for such
securities, or if there is no such reported sale on the valuation date, at the
most recent quoted bid price. Unlisted securities for which market quotations
are readily available are valued at the most recent quoted bid price. Debt
obligations sixty days or less remaining until maturity are valued at amortized
cost which approximates market value.
     FEDERAL INCOME TAXES -- It is the intention of each Portfolio to continue
to qualify as a regulated investment company and to distribute all of its
taxable income. Accordingly, no provision for Federal income taxes is required
in the financial statements.
     The Portfolios may be subject to taxes imposed by countries in which they
invest with respect to their investments in issuers existing or operating in
such countries. Such taxes are generally based on either income earned or
repatriated.
The Portfolios accrue such taxes when the related income is earned.
     NET ASSET VALUE PER SHARE -- The net asset value per share of each
Portfolio is calculated on each business day. It is computed by dividing the
assets of the portfolio, less its liabilities, by the number of outstanding
shares of the portfolio.
     REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS -- Securities pledged as collateral for repurchase
agreements are held by the custodian bank until maturity of the repurchase
agreements. Provisions of the repurchase agreements and procedures adopted by
the Trust require that the market value of the collateral, including accrued
interest thereon, is sufficient in the event of default by the counterparty.
     The Portfolios may also invest in tri-party repurchase agreements.
Securities held as collateral for tri-party repurchase agreements are maintained
in a segregated account by the broker's custodian bank until maturity of the
repurchase agreement. Provisions of the agreements require that the market value
of the collateral, including accrued interest thereon, is sufficient in the
event of default by the counterparty of the Portfolio.
     If the counterparty defaults and the value of the collateral declines or if
the counterparty enters an insolvency proceeding, realization of the collateral
by the Portfolio may be delayed or limited.
     FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION -- The books and records of the Portfolios are
maintained in U.S. dollars. Foreign currency amounts are translated into U.S.
dollars on the following bases: (I) market value of investment securities, other
assets and liabilities at the current rate of exchange; and (II) purchases and
sales of investment securities, income and expenses at the relevant rates of
exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions.
     The Portfolios do not isolate that portion of gains and losses on
investment securities which is due to changes in the foreign exchange rates from
that which is due to changes in market prices of such securities.

                                      -18-

<PAGE>

================================================================================

     The Portfolios do isolate the effect of fluctuations in foreign currency
rates when determining the gain or loss upon sale or maturity of foreign
currency denominated debt obligations pursuant to the Federal income tax
regulations. Such amounts are categorized as foreign currency gain or loss for
both financial reporting and income tax reporting purposes.
     The Portfolios report gains and losses on foreign currency related
transactions as realized and unrealized gains and losses for financial reporting
purposes, whereas such gains and losses are treated as ordinary income or loss
for Federal income tax purposes.
     FORWARD FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS -- The portfolios enter into forward
foreign currency contracts as hedges against either specific transactions or
portfolio positions. The aggregate principal amounts of the contracts are not
recorded as the Portfolios do not intend to hold the contracts to maturity. All
commitments are "marked-to-market" daily at the applicable foreign exchange rate
and any resulting unrealized gains or losses are recorded currently. The
Portfolios realize gains and losses at the time forward contracts are
extinguished. Unrealized gains or losses on outstanding positions in forward
foreign currency contracts held at the close of the year are recognized as
ordinary income or loss for federal income tax purposes.
     FOREIGN CURRENCY OPTIONS -- Premiums paid by a portfolio for the purchase
of an option are included in the portfolio's Schedule of Investments as an
investment and subsequently "marked-to-market" to reflect the current value of
the option. For an option held by a portfolio on the stipulated expiration date,
the portfolio realizes a gain or loss. If the portfolio enters into a closing
sale transaction, it realizes a gain or loss, depending on whether the proceeds
from the sale are greater or less than the cost of the purchased option. If the
portfolio exercises a purchased call option, the cost of the underlying
investment which the fund purchases upon exercise will be increased by the
premium originally paid.
     FUTURES CONTRACTS -- The International Equity Portfolio utilized futures
contracts during the six month period ended August 31, 1996. The Portfolio's
investment in these futures contracts is designed to enable the Portfolio to
more closely approximate the performance of it's benchmark index.
     Initial margin deposits of cash or securities are made upon entering into
futures contracts. The contracts are marked to market daily and the resulting
changes in value are accounted for as unrealized gains and losses. Variation
margin payments are paid or received, depending upon whether unrealized losses
or gains are incurred. When the contract is closed, the Portfolio records a
realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the proceeds from (or cost
of) the closing transaction and the amount invested in the contract.
     Risks related to futures contracts include the possibility that there may
not be a liquid market for the contracts, that the changes in the values of the
contract may not directly correlate with changes in the values of the underlying
securities, and that the counterparty to a contract may default on its
obligation to perform.
     CLASSES -- Class-specific expenses are borne by that class. Income,
expenses, and realized and unrealized gains/losses are allocated to the
respective classes on the basis of relative daily net assets.
     EXPENSES -- Expenses that are directly related to one of the Portfolios are
charged directly to that Portfolio. Other operating expenses of the Portfolios
are prorated to the Portfolios on the basis of relative net assets.
     DISTRIBUTIONS -- Distributions from net investment income and net realized
capital gains are determined in accordance with U.S. Federal income tax
regulations, which may differ from those amounts determined under generally
accepted accounting principles. These book/tax differences are either temporary
or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent, they are
charged or credited to paid in capital in the period that the difference arises.
     OTHER -- Security transactions are accounted for on the trade date of the
security purchase or sale. Costs used in determining net realized capital gains
and losses on the sale of investments securities are those of the specific
securities sold. Purchase discounts and premiums on securities held by the
Portfolio are accreted and amortized to maturity using the scientific interest
method, which approximates the effective interest method. Dividend income is
recognized on the ex-dividend date and interest income is recognized using the
accrual method.

SEI INTERNATIONAL TRUST -- AUGUST 31, 1996 (UNAUDITED)

3. MANAGEMENT, INVESTMENT ADVISORY AND DISTRIBUTION AGREEMENTS
SEI Fund Management (the "Manager"), a wholly owned subsidiary of SEI
Corporation, and the Trust are parties to a management agreement dated August
30, 1988, under which the Manager provides management, administrative and
shareholder services to the Fund for an annual fee equal to .45% of the average
daily net assets of the International Equity Portfolio, .60% of the average
daily net assets of the International Fixed Income Portfolio, and .65% of the
average daily net assets of the Emerging Markets Equity Portfolio. The Manager
has voluntarily agreed to waive all or a portion of its fees and, if necessary,
reimburse other operating expenses in order to limit the operating expenses of
each Portfolio.
     SEI Financial Management Corporation (SFM) acts as the investment advisor
for the International Equity and the Emerging Markets Equity Portfolios. Under
the Investment Advisory Agreement, SFM receives an annual fee of .475% of the
average daily net assets of the International Equity Portfolio and 1.05% of the
average daily net assets of the Emerging Markets Equity Portfolio.
     Pursuant to Sub-Advisory Agreements with SFM, Acadian Asset Management,
Inc., Farrell Wako Global Investment Management, Inc., Morgan Grenfell
Investment Services Limited, Seligman Henderson Co., Yamaichi Capital
Management, Inc. and Yamaichi Capital Management (Singapore) Limited serve as
Sub-Advisors to the International Equity Portfolio, and Montgomery Asset
Management, L.P. serves as Sub-Advisor to the Emerging Markets Equity Portfolio.
     Strategic Fixed Income, L.P., the advisor for the International Fixed
Income Portfolio, is a party to an investment advisory agreement with the Trust
dated June 15, 1993. Under the investment advisory agreement, Strategic Fixed
Income, L.P. receives an annual fee of .30% of the average daily net assets of
the Portfolio. Strategic Fixed Income, L.P. has voluntarily agreed to waive all
or a portion of its fee, in conjunction with the Manager, in order to limit the
total operating expenses of the Portfolio.
     SEI Financial Services Company (the "Distributor"), a wholly-owned
subsidiary of SEI, serves as each Portfolio's distributor pursuant to a
distribution agreement with the Trust. The Portfolio's have adopted a
shareholder service plan for Class A shares ("the Class A Plan") under which
firms, including the Distributor, that provide shareholder and administrative
services may receive compensation therefore. Under the Class A Plan, the
Distributor may provide those services itself, or may enter into arrangements
under which third parties provide such services and are compensated by the
Distributor. In addition, the Portfolios may enter into such arrangements
directly. Under the Class A Plan, a Portfolio may pay the Distributor a fee at a
negotiated annual rate of up to .25% of the average daily net assets of such
Portfolio attributable to Class A shares that are subject to the arrangement in
return for provision of a broad range of shareholder and administrative
services.
     The International Equity Portfolio has adopted a distribution plan for its
Class D shares (the "Class D Plan") pursuant to which a 12b-1 fee of up to .30%
of the average daily net assets attributable to the Class D shares will be paid
to the Distributor. As of August 31, 1996, the Distributor was taking a fee
under the Class D Plan of only .25% of the average daily net assets attributable
to Class D shares. This payment may be used to compensate financial institutions
that provide distribution-related services to their customers. Under both the
Class A Plan and the Class D Plan, the Distributor may retain as profit any
difference between the fee it receives and the amount it pays to third parties.
     Certain Officers and/or Trustees of the Trust are also Officers and/or
Directors of the Manager. Compensation of Officers and affiliated Trustees is
paid by the Manager.

4. ORGANIZATIONAL COSTS
Organizational costs have been capitalized by the Portfolio and are being
amortized using the straight line method over sixty months beginning with the
commencement of operations. In the event any of the initial shares of the
Portfolio acquired by the Manager are redeemed during the period that the
Portfolio is amortizing its organizational costs, the redemption proceeds
payable to the Manager by the Portfolio will be reduced by an amount equal to a
pro rata portion of the unamortized organizational costs.

5. FORWARD FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS
The Portfolios enter into forward foreign currency exchange contracts as hedges
against portfolio positions. Such contracts, which are designed to protect the
value of the Portfolio's investment securities

                                      -20-
<PAGE>

================================================================================
against a decline in the value of the hedged currency, do not eliminate
fluctuations in the underlying prices of the securities; they simply establish
an exchange rate at a future date. Also, although such contracts tend to
minimize risk of loss due to a decline in the value of a hedged currency, at the
same time they tend to limit any potential gain that might be realized should
the value of such foreign currency increase.
     The following forward foreign currency contracts were outstanding at 
August 31, 1996:

                                           IN        UNREALIZED

8. CONCENTRATION OF RISKS
Each Portfolio invests in securities of foreign issuers in various countries.
These investments may involve certain considerations and risks not typically
associated with investments in the United States, as a result of, among other
factors, the possibility of future political and economic developments and the
level of governmental supervision and regulation of securities markets in the
respective countries. The International Fixed Income Portfolio invests in debt
securities, the market value of which may change in response to interest rate
changes. Also, the ability of the issuers of debt securities held by the
Portfolio to meet their obligations may be a affected by economic and political
developments in a specific country, industry or region.

9. FUND MERGERS
Effective March 25, 1996, all the assets and liabilities of the European Equity
Portfolio and Pacific Basin Portfolio were transferred to the International
Equity Portfolio in a tax-free reorganization pursuant to a Reorganization
Agreement approved by the shareholders. The net asset value of the European
Equity and Pacific Basin Portfolios of $81,709,082 and $68,655,364,
respectively, were transferred to the International Equity Portfolio, in
exchange for 8,126,302 and 6,828,057 shares of the International Equity
Portfolio; those shares were then distributed to shareholders in liquidation of
the European Equity and Pacific Basin Equity Portfolios.
