Can You Find Yourself?
Are you a student who has recently come to the United States from another country? Perhaps you have immigrated with family members or on your own. Whatever you particular situation, learning the unique language, culture, and expectations of a U.S. college can be a challenge. Do instructors’ expectations and student behaviors seem different from what experienced in your home country? Seek out English as a second language (ESL) courses or programs if you need help with your English skills. Also, visit the international student advisors to find out how you can continue to increase your understanding of life in the United States, both on and off campus.
