International Student Life Handbook
Guidelines and tips for day-to-day life in the United States.
Life as a student in the US can be a very rewarding experience – if you know how to handle the little challenges of everyday life that may be very different here than at home. The student handbook has been written to answer common questions about US culture, money, academic life, taxes, and other important social and cultural issues that come up in everyday life.
Life is full of surprises, and the student handbook is your tool to be prepared. Not all international students' questions will be answered here. If you find you need further assistance, please contact us via phone, e-mail or in person.
To view or print a copy of the student handbook, you will need Acrobat Reader installed on your computer. If you do not have Acrobat Reader, go to the Adobe website to download a free version.
