INTERNATIONAL EQUITY AND EMERGING MARKETS EQUITY FUNDS (THE "FUNDS")

The Board of Trustees of SEI Institutional International Trust (the "Trust") has
approved the use of equity-linked warrants as an additional investment vehicle
for the Funds. On page S-8 of the SAI of the Trust, after the second full
paragraph, the following is inserted:

EQUITY-LINKED WARRANTS - Equity linked warrants provide a way for investors to
access markets where entry is difficult and time consuming due to regulation.
Typically, a broker issues warrants to an investor and then purchases shares in
the local market and issues a call warrant hedged on the underlying holding. If
the investor exercises his call and closes his position the shares are sold and
the warrant redeemed with the proceeds.

Each warrant represents one share of the underlying stock, therefore, the price,
performance and liquidity of the warrant are all directly linked to the
underlying stock. The warrants can be redeemed for 100% of the value of the
underlying stock (less transaction costs). Being American style warrants, they
can be exercised at any time. The warrants are U.S. dollar denominated and
priced daily on several international stock exchanges.

There are risks associated with equity-linked warrants: The investor will bear
the full counterparty risk to the issuing broker, (but the sub-advisers can
mitigate this by only purchasing from issuers with the highest credit rating).
They also have a longer settlement period because they go through the same
registration process as the underlying shares (about three weeks) and during
this time the shares cannot be sold. There is currently no active trading market
for equity-linked warrants. Certain issuers of such warrants may be deemed to be
"investment companies" as defined in the 1940 Act. As a result, the Fund's
investment in such warrants may be limited by certain investment restrictions
contained in the 1940 Act.



The International Equity and Emerging Markets Equity Funds each may invest in
equity-linked warrants.




The SAI is hereby amended to reflect this change.
